At the liquor store, the pea soup night of smoke makes for a surreal evening, there's an old hippy, long beard, in a full on gas mask, 2 hoses running to a mask strapped to his face, holding a transistor radio blaring punk music, loudly, buying a bottle of the cheapest gin, not to laugh because if ever you needed a respirator, gas mask, full apocalypse regalia, now would be the time, but he is perfect, the haze visible even indoors, bottle of Gin in one hand, Radio in the other, he's the poster boy for the Armageddon.
Heat, Smoke

Mondaty, Tuesday, the restaurant, slammed. 2 hours of madness and not keeping up before it's over. An American woman, loudly complaining she can't get servers, telling me to "send someone over", completely oblivious, she's the center of her own show, it only takes one such ambassador to ruin the reputation of an entire country...
Anyways, Wednesday, today off, and now it's smoke, settled in, the slow rain of ash and dust, blotting out the mountain across the lake, the sky, a sooty, sullen sort of heat, 33, 34 degrees, the smoke is stopping it from getting to the 39 and 40 forecast, but it's still plenty hot enough.
Some photos of the sunset...
