Y'all are ruining the West. Our trip to Western Canada last year had these kinds of views, not great.

There are no clouds (or rain) in these pictures I just posted, the sky is filled with smoke.

Gender reveal partiers are a subset of humanity so... (I may have just opted out of humanity.)

'Day of the Dead' Barbie: Mattel releases second edition


Name: Day of the Dead' Barbie.jpg Views: 3654 Size: 78.8 KB

Mattel's latest Barbie Dia De Muertos, inspired by Mexico's Day of the Dead tradition, is back.

With a delicate lace gown and face painted in typical "calavera" (Spanish for "skull") style, this Barbie is the second installation in the company's La Catrina collection, which began in 2019.

Día de los Muertos, or "Day of the Dead," is a centuries-old Mexican folk tradition celebrated during the first two days of November.

Families visit graveyards to remember their departed loved ones and to remind themselves that death is nothing to fear.

People also build altars to welcome the spirit of the deceased back for one night, adorning them with photos, mementos and traditional elements like "pan de muerto" (bread of the dead), sugar skulls and marigolds. ...

While the dangerous plumes are forcing people inside along the West Coast, residents thousands of miles away in the East are seeing unusually hazy skies and remarkable sunsets.

Yeah. Super red sun yesterday morning. No clouds in the sky. Just a high haze.

Overcast today, so I don't see any smoke.

Still quite smoky and foggy here. This is from about 9 am this morning. The sun is that bright ish spot among the power lines.
