Yesterday was pretty much a perfect weather day. Temps in the low 20's no wind and bright clear skies. Awesome, more of that please.

Potential for thunderstorms tomorrow... probably right when I'm done getting the deck & patio furniture all out and ready for a BBQ.

Looks and smells like the first bit of smoke for the summer has blown in.

I'm just at peace with it now. We are a four season climate.

Winter season
Smoke season
Thunderstorm season
Second smoke season

And that's the year.

Omg. With rain in the forecast, I just assumed it was that type of weather rolling in. Didn't even occur to me it could be smoke. Ughhh

Never hurts to have the PurpleAir map available to see how things are:

Sorry guys...I spent the day burning all of my leaves and Yard Debris and then there was a Community Clean-Up initiative but the 'shredding company' was just my backyard fire pit.

Mea Culpa.

This is what seems so weird to me. We never had this, like I can’t remember it being a thing. All of a sudden it’s the new normal and nothing can be done? I know this like Ernest Hemingway on bankruptcy (slowly, then all at once), but it still seems odd.

Uhm...well, I know this may be hard to hear, but it's kinda been warned that this is the new normal if we don't start doing something about...something? I forget. Anyway I need to go buy a new F-250 to get to the grocery store.
