These days the air quality in the Northwest is not as good as many people wish.
From this morning the sun is just red and far; the weather is not as cold as last week; but the whole sky is covered with a yellowish dust(actually it’s full of ash) and the air smell as when we were sitting before a fireplace.
Yes, we are encountering a mountain fire disaster.

The map shows that we are not the worst region from this fire.
Then, we’ve received an email from my daughter’s school:
This is another email from her school this afternoon:
Both of these 2 emails say that the local air quality is not as bad as it looks like. And they call it a ‘mirale’!
But, what the fact is? Let’s just talk around my house.
This is the sun looks like now. (picture taking 10 mins ago )
Here is the fire ash from my backyard deck.
Even this weed catches some smoke ash/dust.
A forgetting plate from my BBQ grill. Now I have a new ash tray.
My daughter’s favorite Elsa Chair!
It says that these days we should extremely care of using fir at home, because: almost all the fire trucks head for this mountain fire!!
yeah - the air quality is crap in OLY WA - had to wash ash off the car - breathing is rough
