So lovely!!!
and on and on and on it goes. we may not have consistent ash fall that you can see... it snowed today, and still is lightly off and on with mixed rain. ash is in it. things around the building are starting to show a light coating of dust/ash. I can smell and taste it. my skin feels raw. I refilled my inhaler and my lungs hurt!

I am living in the ring of fire.... fine.
Thanks for reading...
