For those of you living in dry, burning areas ---

Be careful out there!

Last night, air quality went from not-so-good to smelling like fire in no time, when dry lightning and a wind storm went through, and this morning, the light's the wrong color -- grass looks like I'm wearing brown tint sunglasses!

(looking at the National Interagency Fire Center site -- www.nifc.gov -- several thousand acres started burning around us last night, the wind has blown in lots of smoke, and our foothills/mountains have stopped it all like a wall!)

I'm at work today, told DH to stay off his bike. He walked out onto the deck and said it was too stinky to ride. Good thing. Now I don't have to worry about him today! Oh no, what if he decides to mow the lawn?????
