smoke chasers

When I stepped outside this morning I could smell smoke. It was cold last night and most of the houses in town rely on wood burning stoves as their heat source. It was a wonderful Autumn feeling - the air crisp, the smell of wood burning... As we drove toward town though I realized it wasn't just a few woodburning stoves - Mexico is on fire again. One long line of cloud on the horizon in an otherwise clear sky. A sight we've seen a lot in the last few years. We get the hazy days, the constant smell of fire, and the most amazing sunsets as a result. The kids and I took a little trip to the border. In 15mins we go from Fall to Summer.
