Day 20: Smoke and Gnats

8/8/2023

0 Comments

 
This morning we woke up to the smell of wildfire smoke again. It permeated the RV and definitely made my eyes burn - apparently I am the only one with sensitive eyes. Once again the smoke was so thick that we could not see the mountains. I posted pictures of our view of the mountains from this morning and then again in the evening, after some of the smoke cleared. In the morning, we could not even see the mountains that are right next to the campground. 
Since this was out last day here and it was Cliff's birthday, we relaxed at the campground and enjoyed a nice dinner at our favorite restaurant. Tonight we are packing up the RV to start the long trek home to Atlanta.
The gnat problem has surely gotten out of control as there are hundreds in the RV. We have tried to drown them in a bowl with sugar/vinegar/dish soap water but no gnats have even gotten close to the deadly bowl. The boys were up for hours last night, on a gnat killing spree. It was quite amusing. We have talked to other campers and apparently everyone is struggling with gnats right now. On a positive note - we all know a lot about gnats now.
