Smoke

Unfortunately, it doesn't take long for new bad news to supplant old bad news, and the wildfires have fallen by the wayside in the national media.  But they're still growing, and the Okanagan complex fire is now the largest in state history. 

As far as daily life in Twisp goes, the story is smoke.  Amanda and Tom are working and the kids have to stay mostly indoors. But Amanda said everyone is doing OK, despite this pathetic little picture that "Opa" (Grandpa Jerry) took today. 

We are praying for rain across the state. It looks like we'll get some by the weekend.   Our air is much better than it was over the weekend. I ran across this startling video of the "smoke front" that moved into Seattle on Saturday.
