On my way to the doctor’s appointment this morning, I notice that the air smelt a bit weird. Getting on the road I noticed that it was unfortunately the smoke fog, it hasn’t been here in a good while. Those damn fires have been burning for months it seems, how totally sad.
Here is a set of photos taken very quickly as I was heading south on the two-fifteen freeway. Basically point-and-shoot photo, no time to focus. On a different note, yours truly made a big mistake yesterday and this morning which precluded me from having this test done.
I can’t take my Metformin the day before or the morning of the test. Nor can I take it three days after the test. Metformin has a habit of reacting terribly with the Iodine the technician injects you with. Dammit! So, I’ve rescheduled the test for Thursday. Dammit! 😂😂






Great photos! Man that sounds bad!
It is unimaginable that California is still burning! Our hospitals in Saskatchewan are full of Covid patients, I have no idea what would happen if we were smothering in wood smoke. I wonder how California keeps up with it all.
thats a sad set of pictures John, hope everybody is ok.
Thanks, Ian, the smoke stinks and will eventually blow away when the wind direction changes. It’s smoke from wildfires in California. Poor people, those fires have been raging for way too long!
We hear about them most years. Its awful. Thats a long way for the smoke to travel.
The sky looks so eerie covered in a smoky haze. It’s been a terrible year for wildfires. We’ve even had some in northwestern Ontario and experienced some smoky conditions.
I’m sorry that you’ve had fires way up there too. This smoke is from the California wildfires, I feel bad for those folks having to deal with the constant fires. The smoke will blow away for today, I hope.
I’m surprised about the 3 days after, the day before and morning of, I can understand.
I just do what the techs and doctors say, they know much more than I do! Missing two days shouldn’t mess up my glucose much if any.
