Smoke in the air

There seems to be smoke in the air. Not too bad here in Central Texas. I have RV friends that live close to Bastrop, and Austin. I have been hoping to hear from them. One lady live close to Holland,TX and doesn't do computer stuff! The scenes on TV of the fires are really sad. So many homes lost. We need a good long soaking rain. I may have to get out and do my raindance. Seems like I remember when I was a kid and we were in a drought, air planes salted the sky. 
The weather was a little cooler, but not really blanket weather for me. We had 63 days of temps over 100, most days 107, so I am grateful for any drop of temp. Pretty soon, we will all be saying it's too cold!
