Absurd August

Absurd is right! We missed a good six weeks of summer here in Eastern Wa, as did many around the state due to wildfires, and dense smoke. Third week of July we got socked in with "hazardous" air quality index numbers, and it just lifted yesterday. Phew!

We had a few days where finally we couldn't smell too much ash. Which allowed me to attend our yearly family camp trip, but wearing a mask most of the time. This year was held at Sun Lake Resort Dry Falls. Eighteen in attendance, and lots of fun.

Kind of took over the place.

I also managed to sneak in a couple weeks at our local winery for music, great wine and friendship.

This months blog is more personal as I appreciated all my family in the past few weeks, and the love that surrounds me. 

Wishing you all the best! Enjoy your friends, and family. They're what makes the world go round.
