Change of Season
Oct. 9th, 2021 01:54 pmWith warm weather turning cold, the auxiliary swamp cooler that Lisa fitted to the travel trailer during the summer can be removed and secured. That also means removing the disposable filters she taped over the built-in filters to catch the smoke from the wildfires.

The wildfires are still not gone. The largest of them, the Caldor fire to the southwest of Lake Tahoe, is approaching 98% containment, but there are still other fires burning that may continue to burn until we get some serious rain.
On the encouraging side, an early snowstorm dropped some snow on the Sierra Nevada, including more than 25 cm at Mt. Rose (the ski mountain that overlooks Reno). Here's hoping for lots of snow this year. We need all we can get.
