That's Not Fog! (August 7)

Nope, friends and neighbors--that is smoke filling the air in Salt Lake.  And it isn't even "ours" according to the weatherman.  It is from all of the forest fires in Oregon and California.  The winds have blown it to us and it got caught by the mountains.  Yuck--it lasted bad for about a week but still was noticeable for a month or so. We were grateful for the rains which would dampen it down for a day or two.

Wildfires have been bad throughout the west due to the drought conditions, but Utah has done very well this year and has had less fires than normal ..at least up until this point in mid-September when I am writing this.
