So, I’m sittin’ here doing The Dope, and all of a sudden the sky gets a little orange. Then tannish. Now brown! Visibility is down to under a mile. All in the space of about 3 hours!

There is a fire burning at least _a hundred miles from here_ and the winds are just right to ruin my world! Really quit unbelievable how quickly all this smoke rolled in.

Nose running, head aches, throat hurts. Nothing to do but drink beer, I guess. I’ve never seen conditions this bad before. Kinda erry.
