I just added Semi-Charmed Life to my 'aquatic center circa 2000' playlist which has songs that feel like I heard them under the water at the pool. Other examples are She's So High and Drops of Jupiter.
Fun fact, the kind of ants pictured are Field Ants! Notorious in the Hart but not uncommon in the Bowl or CH, they have the unique behavior of swarming over the large mounds they construct out of organic material like pine needles or fallen leaves (Which is why they're also called Thatcher Ants, the mounds work similarly to a thatched roof). It's very rare for them to invade a home, but they can take over a yard or deck, and can deliver a surprisingly nasty bite!
Ha, I did the "signs of spring" giant ant hill check on the weekend at our property and sure enough, some were out and about. It is also where the first green grass starts to pop up, thanks to the hill being on a warm south facing slope and the heat of ants getting busy.

Re new CNC sign: another reason it's at ground level is picture taking! I reckon that's why there's a bench right in front.
re: air quality, big shoutout to the PG folks who have PurpleAir sensors: https://map.purpleair.com/1/mAQI/a10/p604800/cC0#12.43/53.89637/-122.77728 The sensors aren't exactly cheap, and I'm so grateful to our neighbours who have put them up!
Agreed; I find them much more accurate & responsive than official air quality number.
