on fire

August 14, 2007

On Sunday, the sun disappeared through the thickest smoke I have ever seen. The above photo was taken moments before our brightest star vanished completely. Cars were driving with their lights on at 7pm. It was dark and the light was the color of curry. Even in our house.

This NASA satellite image is pretty incredible. Missoula is right there in the middle of all of the smoke (click to enlarge).

There is ash falling from the sky. The gray dust is all over my plants.
