One would never guess from the picture above that it was almost 90 degrees outside today. It looked overcast. It was smoke. It blew in during the day from the fire across the valley to the west that sprung back into heated action yesterday, as well as a new fire in the range directly to our east. I opened the doors to let the dogs out for their afternoon potty break and almost immediately started coughing. It's hard to breathe and I didn't want to leave the furbabies out there very long. You can barely see the mountains in the picture, which are only about 10 miles away, maybe. You can see it enveloping the trees in the middle of the picture, which are only about a quarter mile away.
