A Wood-Fired Oven

It's like an oven here, at 105. It makes me burn, too, my tissues just under the skin of my forearms and hips. Smoke is thick in the air and tickles the throat. All of the sky is hazy from the fires near the New Mexico border.

But it's home and I have at last been sleeping well. Glad to be here with my chore list and my large carton of mail from the post office.

I have used the evaporative cooler all day (not air conditioning) and it stayed no higher than 80 in my adobe house. They're da bomb!
