It’s awful...,.
08/21/18 at 17:55:43
 
The smoke from fires is just terrible.....
Most of the smoke in my area is from British Columbia.
The smoke has been so thick for days it’s like fog, except it’s warm
out, and makes your eyes sting.
No let up until maybe this weekend.
It’s awful 😫

A friend lives about thirty miles south of Seattle. He's been complaining about the smoke for a while.

Hawaii... volcano, then multiple hurricanes. They have not been having a good time there lately.

I love living on the island, however, my wife is getting the itch to move.
We are planning a trip (not sure when) to South Carolina.
If I move from here, I can only move to a place/house that is on, or very close and accessible, to water.

As we get older, the medical availability is getting to be more of a concern....
It is surely lacking on the island, as are other things you need ( food expensive, gas, etc)

Oh, ok, thanks.....
I don't read the news all that much.
Saw about the volcano, that was weeks ago, is it still erupting?

Yeah, Ray, instead of just oozing for a few days, it's not stopping. You can find satellite photos of it.

My entire province is on fire. Can't see the horizon from where I live and the nearest fire is at least 100 miles away!
Went riding today, wasn't quite as bad as yesterday, rain expected Friday! Cool

S Carolina is a good place to live, I spent 25 years there.  I only moved to be near my mom during her last years.  My wife and I will return after she passes.
I lived in the greater Columbia area.  There are plenty of hospitals and clinics everywhere.  Very good care.
And they have a lot of good beaches...Myrtle Beach’s. 😁

You could taste the smoke yesterday evening, yuk.
Woke to cars dusted with ash.
Hopefully we have a change approaching soon.
My eyes feel gritty, and my lungs raw.
It zaps my energy.
Not fun.

Lancer..... thanks for your reply.
BTW, have you ever been up to the Quapaw Indian casinos?
That is my tribe.
I haven't been yet, but thinking I will pass through their in the future.
It looks great.
I get my monthly news letters, they are doing great things for the local community, it appears.
I remember when all we has was a gas station and tobacco store  Smiley

Move to North Carolina and buy a house on Lake Santeetlah!

It is right smack dab in the middle of the great riding areas in TN, NC and GA.  We would come visit you on a regular basis.....maybe 3 - 4 times a summer!

I live in KY about 6 hours farther north, MMRanch is about 5 hours farther west, Stewmills is about 5 hours southwest in AL.

That area of the country has a lot of lakes and mountains that make it very attractive to visit or live.......maybe the constant flow of tourists  would get tiring after a while.
