Life slows down a bit as many college students and faculty leave town. But there's still lots to do, like Summerfest.

The city is less lively in summer. And there's the heat and humidity.

Nor Fall, Winter or Spring. Do enjoy the daily shots fired though.

Christopher Watson

Too crowded for me, but hey I'm stuck here.

Nothing compares to the smell of Sulphur, from freshly fired guns in the hot evening sultry air, of nearly anywhere in Columbia.

Are you concerned with the recent spike in local crime?

Yes I saw it Thursday morning and saw the Air quality numbers were high. It would be good to know about these burns in advance so we know what it is from, before seeing it and wondering!

Dianne Price

Can smell it.

Duane Wyman

Yep, very noticeable. Must have a BIG carbon foot print!

Climate change is a hoax

Debra Sun-Mills

Out in DRW, smoke was awful this morning! Burning eyes and scratchy throat. One reason I hate summer is all the smoke and not being able to open our windows. ☹️

Judy Ostrom

Yes, and it is friggin nasty!!!!

Off the path

briefly in the sunset. Nothing compared to years past.
