Smoke

It looks as if convertible conditions are gone for the year. Here in northern Ca, we are surrounded by forest fires. One of which has taken over 50 structures. The air quality is horrible. Typically I ride my bicycle to work, a short mile. Yesterday I drove after riding to work and back home for lunch caused me to hack and feel like I smoked a pack of Camels.
The Rivergate conversion I am doing right now is coming to an end, just have a few things left. I'll take it for a drive to make sure it works, then throw a cover over it and let her sit til the smoke clears.
 
Just as long as you are able to be mobile with it in case the smoke gets too close.
 
It's horrifying. Down in SoCal sending up some positive waves.
 
Sorry to hear about that, bugedd. My wife and I were planning a trip out west but, by the sound of it, much of the west is burning! Top downed thru forest fire smoke before and its no fun so I think we will be going north where it is cooler and wetter. We are cooked here in the midwest as well this summer. Crops are gone!

Send the rain, please! And Nomad, go hit up Oregon, always gorgeous there. Definitely stay away from northern cali.
 
I've got sister's living in Oregon and could probably stop and bug some of the Northwest Contingent of this group but we're thinking farther north. Canadian Rockies.

Well,I was thinking about that. If I show up in a spridget do you suppose there is a distance award?
We were not planning on going that far west but is a consideration.
