Raincharm’s Weblog

We are not in or near the Washington fires, but still close enough for the smoke to have arrived. Tuesday night’s block party was postponed due to the air quality index. It will likely happen on Friday, but we are going to the Mariners game that day. Yesterday and today we largely kept the windows closed to limit the smell indoors. It has been coming and going, and we hope it really goes soon.

This has been the only damper on a visit from Carl’s college roommate.

They have managed to get to a Mariner game, an Aquasox game, and generally hanging out. We did take a long walk this morning. Up the long incline to the Maple Leaf neighborhood, home to Macrina bakery and a hardware store.

I have been busily watching the first three years of Ted Lasso in preparation for Season 4. One episode from Season 3 to go.
