My state is on fire.
And I don’t mean it’s hot. That’s the smoke as seen from a satellite photo taken a day or so ago.
It’s really bad. There’s a constant smell of smoke in the air. I haven’t seen blue sky since getting home from my weekend away. The nearby hills, normally nice and pretty on the not-too-distant horizon, are ghosts, mere outlines of hills barely distinguishable from the smoke in the air.
As of Wednesday, there were 1032 fires burning. Only 232 of them were contained.
I just pray we get some rain soon. Can we borrow some of the water the Mid-West has? I suspect we need it more than they do at this point.
