Wow! The air quality index is in the Moderate zone, this morning, so I can do yard/garden work!!

It's at 60. Earlier in the week it was above 180.

Guess who's mowing the back lot, this morning. Yesterday I wore a mask while mowing the house lawn - most uncomfortable but I thought it best since we were still above 150. I'll have one in my pocket, today, just in case I feel I need it. I might even do some weeding, at a FAR distance from the poison ivy.

It will be a relief to get that done because the grass is really getting high and there's more rain in the forecast.

1. Much better here now down to 79. I really start to feel the effects when it gets over 150

2. Have you noticed any change

in the behavior/presence of the ferals in your area due to the smoke?

3. They haven't been hanging around in the yard

So often they lounge around beneath the branches of the maple tree.

I have seen a couple of them, today.
