Smoky morning

The fires in California must be producing massive amounts of smoke.  It’s as smoky here as it would be if we were having a fire.  I took the dogs out for a run this morning, and noticed just how much smoke there was when the sun came up:

Sunrise.. red sun and lots of smoke.

Sunrise.. red sun and lots of smoke.

The sun was really red.  This picture doesn’t even do justice to how red it was.  The sun was just clearing the Bookcliffs, and I ran to the truck for my camera.  I wish I would have had the bigger lens.  Well, maybe tomorrow I’ll go out with the bigger lens and see if I can get it before it clears the mountains.

On a side note, all the smoke in the air is playing hell with my allergies.  I don’t even know if I can take an allergy pill with all the medication I’m taking right now, so currently I’m making fairly large inroads into the box of tissues on my desk.  I can’t imagine how bad it must be in California right now.

Good luck to any of you in the fire area.  Stay safe.
