Where There's Smoke...

We're finally getting a bit of a break from the smoke from the Burns Bog fire here in Vancouver. All last week we've had orange sunsets and occasionally thicker smoke blanketed the area, giving everything an eerie yellow glow in the middle of the day. Waking up in the mornings to the smell of smoke permeating through the closed windows isn't particularly pleasant either.

Biking to work has been a bit of a challenge too. Yesterday I found myself fighting the urge to cough while going up the final hill on the way home. Tonight should be much better, especially if some of the predicted rain showers materialize.
