| Better today than yesterday! But still considered unhealthy. Went into Manhattan today to look at pianos. I am considering trading in my concert grand Mason & Hamlin for something smaller. Either that or just doing an action replacement. Will have to crunch the numbers.

| I'm glad the air quality is getting better.
It's affecting where my stepfather lives too only 75 miles away from the City. |

Thanks for asking, Daniel. It’s been good here the last several days, in the 30s.

We’re using air quality numbers, not temperature, yes?

| I noticed an odd smell outside last night, and this morning the sky is a weird dark gray and the smell is definitely that of something burning. We're getting the wildfire smoke. Just checked https://www.airnow.gov/?city=A...state=IL&country=USA and the AQI is 186, Unhealthy. Good day to do some inside projects!

| Up to 243. I don't have any allergies or breathing problems like asthma, but after spending just a few minutes outside in the garden, my eyes are scratchy and my nose is running nonstop.

I'd like to see the fire on a map if anyone has one to hand. It must be massive. |
