I was hoping the air quality would improve in the San Francisco Bay Area today. Yesterday, I took a very brief cycle, and my young neighbor friend joined me on his scooter.
Today, the smell of wood smoke is heavy, and it is hard to breathe. I have stayed inside and graded some in-class assignments. I'm not sure if I will go out or not. I may go get a part I need to install in my Nissan Xterra. We shall see.
I'll attach a photo of our Bay Bridge in better times. I'm tired of brownish-grey.

@cindiowens I am pretty happy. Howie and his girlfriend are displaced, but all but but one kitty survived.

It will take awhile for all that to clear out.

I recall the brownish-grey here a few years back. Not fun at all. Hope it blows through soon.

@TheHorse ......If you are the least bit sensitive to Bronchitis or such things you might wear a mask.

It seems to be a bit better since it rained.
