California Burning....

...and the smoke comes north.

This has been the summer of fires. So far, nothing major has burned in Southern Oregon, but poor California seems to be on fire for so long. We get the smoke from the more northern fires.


Since I'm highly sensitive to smoke and don't do well at all with it, when I'm not at work, and on weekends, I've had to shut myself in my home with air filters, exercising with my old Nordic Track machine. I surely miss my walks.

Occasionally, though, the winds change and the smoke is blown away from our valley. But so far, those times have been few.

Well, that makes the Autumn all the more desired and appreciated. I hope that wherever you are, you do not have wildfires and that your wildlife is safe!
