It's been so dry here, during the growing season, that a local sunflower maze, has said it's only for people under 5ft 3inches

Woo hoo, I get to go in I also found that I'm the only adult in the extended family allowed to go on my granddaughters' new swing set

My garden looked lovely in June. Now it's yellow and frazzled.

We've got the smoke from the Canada wildfires here just now, so what would have been a beautiful summer day is hazy, smoky and orange outside. I'm all shut u inside, I can't tolerate the smoke.

Looks like I won't be hiking mowing or yard work today either. Yesterday the air quality went up into the red, which is dangerous for everyone. This morning, at only 8 a.m., it's already borderline at AQI 150, dangerous for "sensitive groups", but one more number and it's back in the red. I fall under the heading of "sensitive" as the smoke makes me really ill. Sunday and Monday I was still resting from my day trip on Saturday but this morning I'm chomping at the bit want to get out and do stuff. But have to stay inside with my house all battened down.

At least I don't actually live where the wildfires are. It must be terrible to be close to them. We just get a lid of smoke that kind of settles over the area for a few days. Orange air, orange sun, orange moon. No ash or anything like that thankfully. And it's not that I ever have a problem entertaining myself inside, I don't. But still, I wanted to play in my yard today.
