New Mexico Fire

It's 5:30am, time to milk goats. Stepped outside before the sun has risen and had to catch this. The smoke is obvious. We've had plumes over the mesa. Unfortunately the fire has taken out a Sacred Indian site as well.

We've had smoke from the Arizona fire for over a month and now this for a week. I've had asthma attacks (I rarely get them except for allergic reaction) off and on for a month.

As of yesterday the fire had burned over 100,000 acres and was 3% contained. We are not working outside after 10am due to the bad air quality and temps in the high 90s. Being at an altitude of 6000ft with bad air is not fun.

I am so tired I feel like I have carbon monoxide poisoning. Might hit up the local oxygen bar while in town today and see if it helps wake me up and clears my lungs a bit.
