Fire Update (See Original Post Below)

Hello again, everyone.
Things are still going okay and there is a glimmer of hope here. They've lifted a few of the evacuations, so some of the half-million people (hopefully including some of Brad's coworkers and my students) that were evacuated will get to go home. The fires are not under control, but the winds are changing. So, that is the good news.

We still woke up this morning to the smell of a campfire, however. I don't know if these pictures do it justice, but you can probably see some of the difference in the look of the canyon behind our house.

This is how it normally looks - crystal clear and blue sky.

I took this photo this morning. The sky is white instead of blue and you can see the cloud of smoke hanging down into the cayon.
