Smoke from the Arizona fires

This was visible from hundreds of miles. Much of our drive in eastern AZ and through NM was hazy due to the smoke on our way to California.

I chased this thing at 80mph so Mike could get a picture. How often do you see a giant armadillo shaped smoked anyhow? I bet it makes great brisket.

I still feel a little out of it. At least I've stopped feeling like I'm still going 70mph all the time. A day of TV watching and eating sandwiches helped. Oh and I bought Rift, because Mike is about to embark on a spate of PS3 gaming so I have to give up the console to him for a few months.

More thoughtful entries and pictures coming soonish.
