Smog

Man does it ever get smoggy out when the temperature rises! Anyone else notice this, or just me?

maybe time to clean your glasses prep?? i remember in nova scotia, it would get really foggy when it was hot...something to do with the cooler water and the hot, humid air i guess...

Get used to it. Gotta come out west farther, almost to downtown Vancouver to get out of it. The mountains funnel the smog from the GVRD all they way up the valley, Abby and the Wack getting the worst of it.

They don't get smog from down here. They get theirs from Kamloops.

we don't have any now, but with town getting busier, and being nestled in a valley, it will start getting noticeable

Welcome to the Lower Ditch preppy. That is the way that she is.

Up here our smog comes from the moose and bear farts.

Oh ya, and from my muzzelloader

But then there is one less bear ........
