Something wonderful happened after Ivan "got the hell out of Dodge."

There's air out there. Actual, breathable, cool air.

Oh, it's still too hot in the daytime (over 70° is still too hot for me), but there's a breeze when you open the windows. You can ride in the car with the windows down and not swelter. You can open the windows of the house and put on the attic fan and not feel like you are drowning in sweat and heavy, bad-smelling air.

There are drawbacks. The nice breathable cool air is filled with pollen from the goldenrod and the ragweed that are everywhere. My eyes still itch. But it's better than the sulphurous-smelling stuff that's been going around since May.
