Telling tails?

0834/2nd June 2023 Poor air quality is not something we normally worry about here but an alert was issued on Wednsday and today the air looks decidedly smokey. Presumably this is from wildfires.

Story time

Muffin's preferred method of transport Muffin was never shy. She is Himalayan with the laid back view of the world that I have seen in all my Himalayan friends.
