Smoke

Smoke fills the air and may be responsible for my extreme tiredness today. A fire from a careless camp ground user about 50 miles away caused these low dark lying clouds a few days ago. Since, 3 more fires have broken out, no doubt due in part to the lack of monsoon rains and in larger part carelessness. The lack of oxygen feels real oppressive. My doors and windows are shut despite the need for cooling down during the night  as tomorrow's temperatures will rise in to the nineties, but will feel even hotter.

Currently one fire encompasses 700 acres and another 9200 acres. Is there a limit to human carelessness?
