I saw the news about the Tahoe area and was starting to get a bit concerned about my favorite alphabet lady.  Hopefully you don’t have to boogie out of there.  How is the smoke?  There were large fires just across the border in Ontario that started up earlier this summer and lately there has been a good size fire near the BWCA and some smaller fires in the BWCA.  The smoke from those fires were really bad here some days and we are farther away from the fires than you are.  Minnesota usually deals with fires in the spring but this year has been so dry we are dealing with them in the summer months.  

Stay safe!
