No really. That's a bad sign ---> !!We took the 4 wheelers up as high as we could before the signs stopped us. The photo below shows the color of the skies. There were several retardant planes flying over and a few helicopters.

The smell was a little scary and too realistic for me. We heard that there are actually three different fires burning.

Tomorrow we are on a RED FLAG alert, which means, and I'm quoting Os here, "This is the designation given when the combination of low humidity, high temperatures, lightning storms, gusty winds and general drought conditions are such that even a nasty glance at a bunch of grass could cause a horrendous wildfire. Fire restrictions are set through out the state, and the fire danger is considered "extreme".

Oh yay.
Heineken anyone?

The fire danger is bad enough, but they put retarded planes overhead as well? That can't be legal.
Wow, forget my attempt at being funny with the Marshmellows comment earlier. You guys take care...
OK, I don't feel so bad about the marshmellow joke now, I just noticed your song. "Light My Fire"... I thought I had sick humor!!! LOL
Ok, between Rick, ~gkw & your song, I'm giggling a little. I know I shouldn't be!

Light My Fire? You are one sick chick. But that's why we love you.
How bout Fire on the Mountain by the Marshall Tucker Band? :)
LOL...
Takes me back to 2002 and the Hayman fire. The town stunk with smoke for weeks. It got to 10 miles from Colorado Springs. We had incredible sunsets...we also had thousands of people suffering with respiratory issues.
Is the truck packed with all the stuff you would take with you if you had 5 mins to pack? Photos, keepsakes etc?
Hang in there sugar.
