I wish you guys the best of luck who struggle with all the terrible smoke in the upper Midwest and the Midwest.

Bad air quality, swarms of hornets… I consider myself lucky…

I got into Boston a bit earlier and grabbed some dinner. Meetings tomorrow and then I’m leaving a little after noon.

Hope to make it home by dinner time tomorrow night!

Good night all!

Night, W... glad your travels are going well. Know you'll feel better once you're home again tomorrow.

Lucky, hmm? Lyme Lucky? or just regular lucky?

Isn't the humble mosquito the state bird of Minnesota?

Afternoon all

OK! Who told on us???

You understand, of course, that I am a man of honour and could not possibly reveal my sources. On the other hand, is it true that everyone has a price?

Overslept a little this morning. That started the mood for the day.

Smoke from the Canadian fires swept through here, with air quality 3x worse than the "do not go outside" level. It's starting to clear some visually, but still 2x the don't go out levels.

Hope this clears soon. Everyone's eyes and sinuses are burning, even with HEPA filters running.

Hope you had a good day today!

I was blissfully unaware of this until I read your post. Fingers crossed that this resolves itself quickly for you and others affected by it!

Good morning. Happy humping day hostelry hipsters!

OMG, guys and Gals.... my apologies for my absence and lack of responses...
I've been "sidetracked" and probably will be for a few more days/ weeks....
Please DON'T let that effect the love and respect I have for y'all!!!!

3 am and old dog has to go out, sinuses bothering me as well as the back. As I am doing a taxi run today, I probably will stay up.

Have a good day and wear a particulate filter mask if in the area of smoke. Protect your lungs.

@Adventurous_soul
Don't like to talk to strangers, huh?

I felt OK today but definitely ran out of steam during my errand run! And I had things to do at home! Laundry to wash my gym clothes do I don't have to show up there nakey. And I baked a cake for my trainer. It's a pancake cake! This is the recipe I used. I only have a 15 inch cast iron skillet so I doubled the recipe and made a few tweaks:

Australia?

Yep! I come from a land down under

 

[Adventurous_soul]

Just. Caught up, I feel for those struggling with smoke from the fires having a fair bit of experience with that here Smoke is unpleasant, and really bad to breathe in, though its a lot better than fire, i hope you are all safe,

Sometimes real life takes over. Or maybe being sidetracked is a euphemism for something….

Hope all is ok!!

Nice cake by the way!

I don't know what your air quality numbers are, but close by here they were just under 1000.

For reference 0-50 is considered good, and 300 considered hazardous.
I've never seen numbers that high before!

It was bad here too.

Thank you sir!
I hope it is too as I'd prefer that you see me here, instead of on the 6 o'clock news!
