Smoke

I’m not sure if you can see it in the photo, but recently there has been a haze of smoke hanging around for the last few days.  The smoke is from a brush fire that is burning about 20 miles north of us and depending on which way the wind is blowing the smoke and fire smell can be pretty strong at times.  So far the fire has burned 3700 acres, but luckily it is moving away from homes.

Because of all of the smoke, I have been keeping Benjamin, Henry & Luna inside as much as possible.  They haven’t been too happy about that and have been begging me to let them outside so they can lay on the lounge chair.  They just don’t understand that it is not good for them to be outside breathing in all that smoky air.
