It got finally much better yesterday afternoon when a few showers appeared in the sky, in Calgary. After a week of hot weather (got to nearly 36 ℃) and smoke (from the wildfires of British Columbia) today the sky looks much nicer and most of the disgusting smoke and heat is gone. It's currently 12 ℃ and feels good. I'm not complaining about hot or chilly whether but I hate smoke and air pollution and I'm happy it's gone. It's a problem here in southern Alberta almost every freaking summer! They call is Wildfire Season and I wonder if there's anything that they can do to stop. They say there isn't. I wasn't here last summer but I remember it was the same damn problem the summer before but not to this extent. I think it was Idaho or perhaps it was the summer before I clearly remember a few hikes that I performed them in haze weather, particularly a failed attempt to The Wedge(!), not something that I'm proud of!
