Smoky

The fires in the Idaho mountains have been making national news.  They've also been making the air in Boise very smoky.  Many days we haven't been able to see the foothills.  Some days the smoke gets trapped close to the ground and it's like driving through fog in the morning.  The fires aren't close to being contained and never will be.  They'll be put out when the snow flies.  It's been about three weeks of red air alerts and the smell of something burning.  We're praying for the fire fighters, some rain in the mountains, and wind here in the valley. 

You should be able to see the foothills down the street.
