I wouldn't mind taking my Grandson out fishing or shooting, but it is so smoky you cant go outside without a respirator.  I suspect there are People around who are doing alot worse than my family is presently, between the multi-faceted evacuations and breathing difficulties of some. Its going to be doing something indoors that is for certain.

Good afternoon, I hope you're all well as can be.
It's super thick here today - enough so I was thinking about bagging up some smoke to save for a clearer day, you know?
Then I ran out of stain and drove to Penticton - well I think I was in Penticton - who could say?
It's bugger though because there was nobody floating the channel and next to no one on the beaches.
We could use the tourist dollars down here in a bad way.
As you said though, it surely could be a ton worse so I'm not complaining about still being able to be in the house.
All the best and stay in touch.
