Big forest fire

There's a massive forest fire burning about 75 kms (47 miles) west of here. Nova Scotia doesn't normally have a problem with forest fires, but this summer has been particularly dry. They've even had some evacuations called.

Yesterday, there was a big cloud of smoke coming through the Annapolis Valley...

Not the best photo, but you get the idea.

Supposed to get some rain today, but we'll see. They were originally calling for 17 mms, but now they've reduced it to 12 mms. Hopefully there will be enough to make a difference.

Had some of Justin's family over yesterday afternoon to celebrate granddaughter Sadie's upcoming 12th birthday.

Hard to believe we've been here six days already!
