Right now I don't have the right words to explain it politely. Perhaps someone will come along and drop an acceptable clue.
Must say it has been wet around here lately. How about you? Some mornings the dew on the grass just sparkles

Did you get drunk and pass out in the front yard again? It's a bitch when the automatic sprinklers go off, ain't it?

I don't even know what that means. Must be a generational thing. Do another couple bong hits, it'll come to you.

As mentioned its has been so wet here there would be no need for yard sprinklers even if I had them.

5 mile walk, executed with kind of verve and élan that only an under-53 year old can provide.

You should hook up with mtwarden for a week or so. Your verve and elan would be knocked into apathy.

I don't think it'd take a week! Hot hot heat inbound, and supposedly a pressure system of some sort is gonna move the smoke back into the Willie Valley. Nice. Thinkin I'll just hole up in the shop and make chips.

Well it dropped down to Unhealthy for Sensitive Groups and even though it's much hotter than I care for, Tiny E and I got 4-ish miles in on Mt Helena- I think the air is a just little clearer on Mt Helena (higher elevation, smoke likes to sink)

Tiny E gets a little mad when I leave without him, so being such a nice day took him out to the hills for 4 miles

I've got a bothersome catch in my lower back- one of those ones that isn't painful all the time- just need to bend, turn, twist a certain way and ouch!
I strength trained this evening, but cut the weight back- a couple of exercises I just cut out completely

Too smoky to go outside so 90 second intervals on the elliptical with 10 rounds of kb swings, wall ball shots and pushups resulting in a 61 minute workout.
And the dogs took me for our regular 5 mile walk this morning, but there is about 900 feet elevation gain.
What would Porter Rockwell do?

Tiny E and I got out for 3 miles early; smoke is back, but at the moment only in the orange- we've now burned a million acres

Had a 7:30 meeting so it was a quick 3 miles with the dogs and more intervals inside. 45 minutes of elliptical broken into 90 second intervals with pull ups, thrusters and battle ropes at each break . I'd never done battle ropes in intervals but rounds 8-10 sucked, not my arms and shoulders but my hams & glutes.
We're at 51 ppm and you can't see the mountains on either side of the valley; my brother lives in northern Idaho and apparently they're over 250 ppm.

We were over 300 a couple days ago or so I heard. The moon was blood-red. I've just been holed up, mostly making electric-bike parts this week, which is fun. Smaller stuff, high-precision, etc. Doing a run of rear wheel hubs these last few days. So, getting towards the strength of a motorcycle hub, but with the critical features such that bike parts fit it, would be the synopsis. Start from bar stock, remove a lot of material.... Fawk, 1000 words: It's tiring but not in a "I got a great workout!" kind of way. Hard on the elbows, of all things.
