Rain

Started here overnight and continued until recently. More expected.

Finally clean air!

Seven Grandchildren and Claire

They are in the mountains east of here to escape the bad air at home.

Smoky Air

The sky here and throughout this region is orange. I have a mask but have not used it yet. The latest wildfire near here isn't even that near here, but in the Chico region. Climate change is affecting California palpably.

Sarah and Leif are inland for a soccer tournament but their game was cancelled due to smoke.

Happy 20th!

Can't believe my youngest is 20 as of today but she is! Shown here with her Aunt Carole. Happy Birthday Julia!
