Smoke on the Water... Fire in the Sky

Several weeks ago, on September 8th, a thunderstorm caused many fires.  
At one point I heard about 80 fires started across eastern Washington.
And more came in the days to follow.  
The Wenatchee Valley filled with smoke and soon we
found our day to day normal being numbers.  Small talk
was about the air quality levels and we all became
versed in what the levels mean.  It was an eerie "normal"
as it lasted over a month.

Things are dying down now.  We've had THREE
whole days of fabulous air- and I will never again
underestimate the beauty of seeing the world from
a crisp- clean air- perspective.
