fog line

Along the base of the Sierra, back of Pasadena, on eastward back of San Gabriel, past Cucamongo, with its noted vineyards, above Pomona and on beyond San Bernardino, growing warmer as it recedes eastward from the sea, is a belt of foothills above the fog line, facing out toward the noonday sun, looking down across the plains and the hills of the Coast Range upon the warm, southern sea, and yet fanned daily by an ocean breeze that has no harshness.

As the driver of the vehicle reached into the glove box to obtain the insurance information another westbound vehicle crossed the fog line traveling onto the north shoulder of the roadway.
