Update

The fires are still burning. Over 6,000 acres so far. I love the smell of wood smoke but only in the autumn when people light their own fires. The ash is still falling but not as much as yesterday. Devilishly hot today not that we're complaining (102 at 1pm). The wind isn't helping.

We went to Bongo Johnnies for lunch today. The other patrons must have thought we were
 crazy out of  towners as we sat on the patio in splendid isolation!!! That's OK. What's a bit of ash in your red wine/burger? LOL

Eyes still smarting, ash still falling, wind blowing, weather still hot. A long way from England we are! Oh, the thunderstorm we had whilst in Stratford. I'm most whistful!!!  Cough,  cough!!
