Thursday we had some excitement. I was upstairs putting Claire down for her nap when I smelled smoke coming from outside. I closed the windows and went outside to look around. When I didn't see any fires, I googled the smoke. Apparently, forest fires in British Columbia had caused smoke to blow in to Edmonton. It was hard to breathe outside and very hazy. The news said that 45 people had called thinking they had fires in their neighborhoods! Whew! Glad I wasn't the only one who thought that!
Over the weekend the smoke has slowly gone away. It is nice to go outside and take a deep breathe of clean air again!
