Today the wind is from the north-northeast
When I get up in the morning I always peek through the slats at the smokestack to see what's what before the blind goes up. The direction of the smelter smoke sets the tone for the day. This morning it was coming straight at me. A wall of it. I was cornered. I left the blind down and crawled back into bed. Now, at day's end, the skies are almost free of cloud. The sun has turned the smoke into apricots. Apricots and whipped cream coming right up.

And in a minute I'll be glancing out over the TraveLodge parking lot, a view I'll have to do without until I return from Emma Lake, July 4. For me, no hops until then.
