The Sun is Back!

The horrible smoke from yesterday has lifted...for now... and the blue sky even emerged by late afternoon. Such is our new normal, with smoke from forest fires, predicted to burn all summer, blowing in and out, depending on wind patterns, etc. Grateful to have this time for a breather, literally!
