Forget zombies.

 

 

Forget nuclear war.

 

 

The pollen is here and I swear it’s going to kill me before the other things have a chance.

This year we’ve seen a crazy increase in pollen. While we normally have a few days of yellow dust choking our air every spring, here we are starting July and we’re still covered in the crap.

How much pollen is too much pollen?

 

 

The barn porch furniture is covered.

 

 

The kitchen porch is covered.

 

 

The back deck is covered.

 

 

It’s in every outdoor crevice.

 

 

And running down the driveway in streams after a rain.

 

 

Nothing escapes it.

 

 

Open your windows?

 

 

It covers the stove.

And the washing machine.

 

 

You know those crazy videos you see on the news…

The ones where someone shakes a tree and clouds of pollen emerge?

 

 

I saw our neighbor do that but didn’t have my camera handy….

It’s insane.
