Last Tuesday the winds shifted and blew the smoke out of the Bay Area. Which means that it's been nice enough to go outside for almost a week! I've been taking full advantage of this. Here are some things that I've done outside in the last week:

*Went on walk with the kid to visit the neighborhood fish pond. All the fish seem well.

*Went on a walk with my brother and the kid. We bought ice cream at the local corner store. The kid walked along a wall by holding on to the fence on top and ended up with her hands covered in ash. All the cars had a thin layer of ash on them.

*Taken photos of my quilt top, finally!

*Picked up books form the library. Our local library is doing pick up only right now where you go to the door of the library give them your card and they give you books. However since this involves having the door of the library open they stopped pickup while the air was really bad.

*gone on walks by myself where I listened to podcasts and enjoyed the view.

*Had a take out picnic with R and the kid. We got Korean fried chicken, and ran around in the grass a lot!

*took a long walk with my parents and my brother.

*had take out dinner with my parents in their back yard.

It's been such a relief to be able to get outside again. However the winds are supposed to shift back soon, so I'm still constantly checking the air quality map. But I'm trying to make the most of it while it lasts.
