More of the Same

The fires are still burning around the cariboo, with no relief of rain in the forcast. Some days it's clear, some days not so much. This was out my back door at 9 this morning, the smoke has settled in the valley again. Last night was clear, it just depends which way the wind is blowing
And some shots from the airport, a buzz of activity. Bombers , helicopters and alot of air traffic Mom and Dad were here, and have now left for Jason's, sad thing is the smoke followed them...opps, haha.
This morning is quiet..almost eerie, I actually like the sound of all those water bombers flying over my house, it is comforting. They must have changed their flight path due to the smoke, I hope that is the case.

Shannon, thinking of you. We had another red-sun sunset, and the weather guys said it was due to the smoke coming down from Canada. You're right--the sound of the water bombers overhead would be VERY comforting. Hope you continue safe!

Great shots, Shannon! I sure hope they get this put out ASAP!! What are they saying as a time-line or can't they predict something this huge? Stay safe!
