Large areas of the West are on fire, including swaths of California and Colorado. The smoke has drifted all the way up here, practically in Canada. As I drove home from Washington, I couldn’t even see the Mission Mountains along the highway! And our view over Flathead Lake was just kind of a grey mess. The far shore was barely visible, swallowed by the smoky sky.
As the sun was setting, it showed some orange and eventually faded to pink, but it’s kind of sad to have so much smoke and haze.
My thoughts are with the many people affected by this summer’s fires…
