And, these iPhone photos tell the story too. A large system of monsoon rains would probably help clear the air here around Las Vegas and elsewhere. That gyro sandwich with baked, sliced chicken and mayo, and more was so darn good that I had another one today! Here is the latest update on the York fire.
This photo was taken when my sister was in town a few weeks ago. As best I can find, the bird is a Tree Swallow, very pretty with its blue feathers!
A fire that began in California in the Mojave National Preserve has crossed into Nevada as of yesterday, my photo shows the smoke from said fire clouding the view of the mountains west of my home. It seems the world is increasingly on fire as time passes, doesn’t it? Read about the York fire.
The east coast has been dealing with the smoke from wildfires in Canada, and we have this fire on the west coast. I am not aware of any enormous wildfires elsewhere, I hope that there are none!
Lovely, isn’t it! A high of just 103 is up for today, a real cooling trend which is great. I sat in the backyard for about ten minutes this morning trying hard to capture the hummingbirds feeding on the feeders but I couldn’t get the damn lens to focus when I needed it too. So frustrating!
A little photographic fun on the couch this afternoon for this post. I used Becasso in this photo.
