5:15 PM: No smoke. 87 degrees and sunny. Will we have smoky air tonight or will the temperature discourage recreational bonfire air polluters?
There was no wood smoke this evening where we live, not even a trace. Fresh air on a nice evening is always a pleasant surprise. In this town, recreational air polluters have all the rights and the rest of us have none at all. They can burn any evening. We never have a guarantee of fresh, unpolluted air. We breathe at the mercy of bonfire burners. When they burn, we cannot sit outside or open our windows making us prisoners in our own homes. They control our lives.
