the islands have been enveloped in vog (from big island's halemaumau crater) and haze (from our own pollution-largely suspected to be from nearby car-filled honolulu) for days now. every year, the situation grows worse as tradewinds that would normally blow this away continue to diminish due to the planet's undoubtedly rising temperature.
for the first time in a long time, i seriously consider the necessity to move in search for clearer skies.
though kauai is the best island to be as far as blue-sky-days are concerned, i'm sad to think that some day soon, there might not be enough of them to clear away the sore throat, asthma and general sick feeling that has engulfed me today.
boo.
