Cloud nine has joy after a tough week..

So, the smoke tariff is a thing of the past, as we go into August 2026. But here’s an idea, create a narrative in your garden over August before you harvest in September with garden totems. Tell the the story in gli🌨️phs of nick nacs and surviving images that may have perished except for your pluck and presence.

So, enduring…

Happy day on your way…

Editor’s: Note Smoke is back going into the weekend…

Forty percent chance for rain Saturday. (Today).

No fires in the immediate area however smoke drifted in on Monday making the sun particularly red. We didn’t find our breathing effected, air conditioned, public buildings included the Public library, the Aquatic Center , the Civic Center. some restaurants were available to those that may be concerened .
The smoke was very much less severe by Wendnsday. Kudos to those that have to be out fighting these things.

On this day: July 09 1993

Canada divides its Northwest Territory in two, creating Nunavut and making NWT and Yukon the three territories in Canada’s north region.
