nature kind of

So today I was driving home and looked up in the sky and noticed a couple of clouds. In recent months I have grown to truly appreciate clouds. They are pretty and make it less hot.
What I love about LA is that even in the midst of a crazy city, all I have to do is walk up some stairs on my street and I get mountains.
I thought it was such a clear day and such a nice blue sky and not smoggy. Then I looked at the photos...the mountains are awesome, but the smog? I couldn't see that until I took the photo. Ew. Kind of gross.
