Alki Danceout


Day 319: Wildfire smoke kept Sound & Fury from having a practice last week, and as of yesterday morning, it looked like our annual Alki Beach danceout might be cancelled as well. Our Squire sent out a poll to see how many of us would be available if we went forward, and at 1 PM, air quality had improved sufficiently to go ahead. Our side was represented by over a dozen dancers and half a dozen musicians, performing in rotation with dancers from Misty City and North by Northwest to a small crowd of onlookers. Even so, some smoke haze veiled the Seattle skyline and Olympic mountains, and I bet I'm not the only one of us who woke this morning with a scratchy throat and irritated eyes. Smoke levels should be improving this week.
