Early morning fog
Autumn diffusing the dawn
Delightful silence

rain-laden dark clouds
Seattle’s signs of autumn
leaves starting to change

rain’s grace
clouds hiding the sun’s face
beloved fresh air
Seattle’s rain is most welcome.

Memories of spring
Rain rippling in puddles
Thinking of sweaters
Today filled with rain, cleansing Seattle’s air of the lingering smoke. Very, very welcome indeed.
Just a few days until autumn. Though I look forward to sweater weather, I dread the greater resistance to spending time outside. Something to overcome.

With my eyes stinging
And the sun hidden by smoke
I’m praying for rain
The smoke of the west coast is getting tiresome. Now, Seattle is much better off than many parts of the region, so I really can’t complain too much.
We are expecting the air quality to improve over the next few days, which I welcome greatly. I’m really looking forward to unimpeded breathing.
As a fan of all things Seattle and Boeing, this was painful to read. I’m hopeful that Boeing can fix this, but also recognize that it’s a monumental task of attempting to reboot a corporate culture against decades of history. Crises tend to provide solid energy to overcome social inertia. I hope Boeing is able to pull this off.
