Bay Area Smoke
October 12, 2004
Wow, will ya look at that? A 25,000 acre wildfire north of Lake Berryessa, dubbed the Rumsey Fire, is so far only 5% contained. Smoke is all over the Bay Area, including here in Marin. Even though the fire is 70 miles north of San Rafael, there were ashes on my car this morning and when I got out of work there were a hundred or so dead bugs all over my car (presumably from the smoke). As someone with respiratory ailments, I’m supposed to stay inside. Of course, like a good little soldier I did go to work today, and feel awful now. I took my contact lenses out when I got home and they were yellow from all the smoke. I feel awful now, and just don’t have the energy to blog tonight folks…sorry.
