Smoke and Fire

Shots Around Town

The following are a few shots we took on a quick drive around town.

While this smoke is terrible and I hope it is gone soon. It pales in comparison to the lives that have been lost and forever changed, and the entire towns that have been destroyed by these fires. Hopefully with rain forecast for Monday and Tuesday the fires can be contained and people can return home and begin the arduous task of rebuilding their lives.
