That pool looks familiar. Are you able to get on a roof of your house to the left and jump from there?

Oh no, no fires that close. This is all smoke drift from a few fires north-west of me; closest is 20 mi. Check that map @raratt posted and it shows the wind drift. I'm in the Salinas river valley and it's close ended so it's just filling up with smoke

We've had a change in the wind. Not nearly as much smoke as yesterday. It's still "orange" out and the smell of smoke is prominent but it's not layered on the streets like fog, like it was yesterday.
Stay in side, if you go out wear a mask

My house is surrounded by farm land mostly. Almond and walnut orchards and some wet rice fields. The pastures nearby have been grazed down to a manageable level if a fire were to break out there. I think we are pretty safe. Thanks for the concern though.

We have the "fog" now, the smoke cooled last night and dropped. I'll see about getting a pic.

Possible from the roof maybe, but easily from the upstairs deck, which you would have to clear while jumping about 20 feet to the pool, if you jumped from the roof. Have you been to Cape Breton?

Your son is either genetically descended from giants or something is pushing on his pituitary, because holy fuck. Even your daughter is an inch taller than me.
The town where we lived in the interior was mandatorily evacuated by a monster fire years ago - we left so fast we forgot shoes for a couple of the kids. I remember the last thing I did was to climb on the roof to nail sprinklers up there & seeing flames well over 100' high as the black spruce trees literally blew up!My house is surrounded by farm land mostly.

20 miles is still pretty close, if they tell you to evacuate you're going to leave right?

What should I do with my trim if I don’t have a micron screen to make dry ice hash? Maybe just edibles?

I unscrewed the fuel line from where it goes into the fuel filter (didn’t change out the filter as it was WAY down in there) and turned the key over until what came out was no longer red (was kind of afraid it was going to burn up my starter, but it didn’t flow out when only the battery was on). Filled it up completely and dare I say it runs better now haha I can’t hear that rod knocking anymore.

Hah, no. It looks identical to a buddy's house in San Diego he sold over 20 years ago. It took up the backyard, was fenced and had that diving board I cracked my head on. But we could get on his roof and jump into the pool.
