The blanket of smoke from the Canadian wildfires has begun to
seep over southern Virginia and even farther south, enough to be seen and smelled
from our house. The view above is looking down toward Lake Lanier, our
neighborhood lake; below that is a shot Ms. B. took from the far end of the lake on
her early afternoon walk; a clip from a video of the Mackinac Bridge between Michigan's upper and lower peninsulas; and a shot of U.S. 10, in Ms. B.'s hometown. I understand the smoke should be clearing up fairly
shortly, and I hope so, as a trip to visit her parents is soon on the docket.
I do feel awful for all the people who are experiencing the worst of these fires. The residue we're seeing here is nothing compared to the damage being done farther north. Let us hope for lots of rain in the coming days.
