...BLUE SKY WITH ONLY A TINY BIT OF SMOKE! First time since early July. What fun! Many people were out today just admiring the sky.

Oh, and I bought a new laptop and have almost everything transferred from the old one, so I'm up and running again. There is a lot of photo re-organizing to do, they're now ALL in one folder. So far, I love it. It's this one: Lenovo Ideapad 330S, 15.6" and very affordable.

It was great! Thanks, Gudrun. I just have to struggle with transferring a few things, but I'll get there. Danke.

Oh - I read about the fire just outside of Berlin!

They have sandy soils and pine forests there, one dropped cigarette and it goes up.... Add to this the munitions the Russians left and boom! Thankfully I'm 6 hours from Berlin.

It didn't occur to me that they were Russian munitions. I assumed American and British bombs!

That's the weather we had for the last 4 month! It sounds great but we had no rain for the same time too. That means a loss of harvest for some farmers of 50 to 100% (corn, wheat)!
But never mind, enjoy the blue sky and the new laptop!

Diane Putnam club has replied to polytropos club
Oooh, that's happening many places, including here. It's our new world. Some farmers won't be able to keep their farms if this goes on again next season. ;-(

Well, but it's very calming to know that this is not going to happen anymore; climate change is only fake news! ;-)

A smoke-free sky? What a concept! (We're still not seeing them here...)

Diane Putnam club has replied to slgwv club
Well, it came back today, so it was a nice 4 days or so. Those California fires are awful. I saw an animated map of the smoke areas with changing air currents and it was huge.

Great news Diane................I bet you (and everyone else) are relieved..!!

This is a really nice image too............I love the row of tiny clouds.

Got your computer sorted as well..............what a memorable time you're having :-)) I think I'll award you a celebratory star!

Well, thank you, Keith, what an honor! Yes, it was a rare thrill to buy a new computer. It was a shocking bargain - $399 (306 GBP).

Thanks for the blue sky, it has been missing for a few weeks here, almost forgot what it looked like! Hope it stays clear for you.

Diane Putnam club has replied to Larry He's So Fine
The smoke was back today, but I hope it will clear again. It all depends on the air currents, naturally. Thanks, Larry! I was wondering how it's going up there, you've answered that for me.

You must have been so relieved!

Diane Putnam club has replied to Andy Rodker club
I don't remember your earlier question, but almost every day I'm relieved at some point. So, yes, I was! ;-b
