Smoke from wildfires burning 500 miles north of my home in Vancouver, WA USA, settled into the Willamette Valley Saturday. Seeing the smokey haze from my window then breathing it when I stepped out to retrieve the morning paper, I knew it was going to be an ‘inside’ day.

With the air quality considered “very unhealthy,” I told Jello there would be no walk today. She was not pleased!

While Jello napped on the futon, I edited a short story I’ve been writing, and as the sun set our forecast called for “more of the same” 0n Sunday.

Smoke hazed sunset through holly.
