Canada and, by proximity, the US have been dealing with smoke off and on
for a couple of months now.  Most of the fires are in Canada (the prarie
provinces, but also northern Ontario and Quebec) and, depending on the
weather, some of that smoke has been making it at least as far south as
Kentucky.

We had a couple of days here were it was so bad you'd swear the fire could
only be a couple of miles away tops.  Other places, like New York City, had
it much worse than us.  There were some days where whole states in my area
(Indiana, Illinois, Ohio) were under air quality alerts.

I don't complain too much about it, though, because at least we are not the
ones on fire.  I feel for Canada.
