Where there's smoke...there's fire!

We've been having some horrible smokey days lately due to nearby forest fires. This year we haven't had much rain, so needless to say everything is dry and crisp. Today we had a poor air quality warning on TV, advising us to get to a nearby ventilated building or to call 911 if we couldn't breathe well. It has been so bad that you can barely see outside, much less breathe. I don't understand how anyone could be a smoker, I would cough myself to death!
Here's some pictures I took of our smoke, but pictures don't do it justice. Bring on the rain!

Nope, those pictures don't do it justice.. The smell was so strong too. That was a pretty scary day and night :( Thank goodness we got rain later on!
