Although the fires are on the other side of the Cascade mountain range, air quality around here the last few days has been pretty bad, and this morning after I got up, I briefly went looking for the source of the "smoke" I was smelling, before realizing where it was likely coming from
After a controlled burn, and during a fire in Big Sur to our south, the sunsets were quite spectacular. Have you noticed any of this sort, TD?
I don't know how much those air-tanker pilots get paid, but they certainly earn it.
Amen to that. Those gents, and the fire jumpers!
