North Carolina is sending us their smoke.

No joke, a fire is burning in NC and we have the haze and smoke smell up here. Convenient timing since it's going to be in the high 90s again today and in the 100s tomorrow and Sunday.

Heh....at least it’s not unleaded gasoline that’s burning.

Rough morning... a local boy that graduated in 05’ that I had the pleasure to meet, just got home from Afghanistan... in a flag draped coffin...

Half the town was at the airport, flags in hand, tears on their cheeks, standing in the rain, to honor him... funeral is on Sunday...

He was killed when a $#!thead drove a SVBIEB into his patrol...

From the local paper:
