A Different Construction Site

  That year I thought the smoke was pretty bad. I felt like it was adversely affecting my health. It was nothing compared with the smoke of 2020, but back then it was bad enough for me to wimp out and escape to a different construction site. 

 

At least at the coast, the smoke was just a haze mixed with fog.

Crunchy sand-biscuits and sand-tea for a perfect beach picnic:)

Leaving for the coast (hours away) was not always an option, but in retrospect we should have decamped for the summer instead of trying to struggle through and "wait it out" for a breath of fresh air...
