Haze

There are so many fires out in the western states that the smoke is high in the atmosphere and is visible even here in Nauvoo, Illinois!

I snapped this picture last week as we were going down Parley street.  One could look at the sun and it didn't even hurt your eyes.  The sun looked very orange and hazy.  I hope rain comes to quench the fires and the dry ground.  I'm once again thankful to live in the Midwest.
