I've discovered yet another downside to being an elder: Decreased tolerance for smoke and the junk in it. We have several wildfires burning in our area. I think the total acreage so far is something over 1.2 million acres burned. At the whim of the wind the smoke from the fires drifts into where we live. It gets down to a few hundred feet of choking, eye burning and generally gaspy breathing gas.

Oh well,....
