Holy smoke!!!

We returned from camping to find the Salt Lake valley filled with smoke.  Fortunately, it's not from fires here in Utah.  There are dozens of fires burning throughout the West and the smoke has been blown in as a result.  Nearly every available wild land firefighter is deployed.  And every fire tanker aircraft is flying too.  If this was your place, you'd be pretty grateful to see a DC-10 flying like this:

How cool is this!?  They normally don't fly this low unless a house or property is in jeopardy.  Talk about heroic!
