Not much smoke here in West Central, IL. But the tradeoff (approaching 100 degrees) is not exactly welcomed. I am going to have to put off clearing debris from the derecho, this week. A little rain (a lot actually) would be welcomed.

The smell of smoke while working in your garage will always been unsettling for the first few moments.
Can’t imagine what this summer must be like to live in Canada.
You know I just figured you were doing your weeding early so you could get away to WI. And I was wondering what exactly you were growing that was so finicky.
Friendly Bob, bad baseball is exactly the]at. With 100ish games left, teams in the Midwest are really bad this year. A 6 hour drive or less from Springpatch (in any direction), and the best record you can get is the marginal Brewbags 56-45. Others; SOX Bad, Cards Bad, CUBS less bad, Royals ridiculously BAD. Let the fire sales begin.

With our Tattoone sunset last night, I could tell the wildfire smoke was back. Hopefully we won’t approach what we had last month.

The smoke it back in the big city. Skyline is completely faded grey. This stinks, literally.

The Sox season has been so disheartening, but at least there’s a chance to beat up on the Cubs, so that’s good, right??

The Crosstown Classic at least interests me a bit.
As I write this, I will not be attending any of the games.
