One hundred miles north or east of me is fire…

Corky, it rolled in here about 8:30 pm that same evening. We heard some news about it on the weather report at 6:00 on the local news and Zim was just lighting the grill. He had a poof of smoke go past the windows and joked about that being from Canada.

Around 8:30, I went out to lock the girls in, couldn't see far out of the driveway. The girls were all in their coop and roosted already.

Zim and I went for a little drive to look around...

It got thick really fast and smelled terrible.

As of right now the smoke has cleared around here. But it's still hot.

Yep, quite a bit of perimeter growth to the West and South today in MN.

I have nothing clever to put here.

Was talking to Mark Downey this morning. Him and a couple other FHA guys were in Toronto to fly to Edmonton. Said it wasn’t bad in North Bay, but in Toronto it was thicker than he’s ever seen it.
Evacuation orders are in a small area west of Thunder Bay……unless things have changed in the last few hours.

That's what it looks like here too. It's smoky enough to make driving dangerous.

The birds are being quiet and don't seem to be flying around much. The butterflies, which were everywhere a few days ago, have totally disappeared. My bees seemed to have stopped gathering nectar.

This air quality is making my cigarette burn funny. The kids had marching band practice inside today.

We smoked the walleye today. 1/4 mile offshore could not see shore in Lake Huron.

For those with FB, this guy explains the funny conspiracies pretty good.

Watching Fox News this morning, their fire map is pretty funny. Not one fire in the US, like they believe their viewers have the mental capacity of a 5 year old……lol.
When you’re staying at a casino and the only channel they got is Fox in the rooms, they don’t want you in the room, they want you in the casino.
On a side note, the in-law won $11222 last night.

Yep that guy is spot on.
In the boreal ecosystem fire is Good.

Reminds me of that young Frankenstein clip where the old guy is telling the monster-Fire is good!
