Arizona on Fire

It was very distressing driving into Flagstaff, Arizona, yesterday.  Nearby Oak Creek Canyon, between Flagstaff and Sedona, has had a wildfire raging through it for several days now.  You can see the smoke billowing up as you go west on I-40.  For firefighters, I am sure this must remind them of last year when 19 firefighters from the Prescott Fire Department lost their lives while battling a fire.  So far, no one has been injured in this fire, but it is still not contained.

These look like the Smoky Mountains, only they are not!
