Smoke on the mountain! I knew what it was because I had seen an announcement that the forest service was going to do a prescribed burn at Wolf Gap.
Yesterday I was driving home from recycling coupled with Charlie’s afternoon outing, and I could see the smoke from Woodstock. I decided to take a closer look, so I drove out to St. Luke.
Let’s go west just a little ways and take another look.
I discovered some back roads that I had not driven before, and saw some nice farms. I’ll study the map and go back again to explore.

We are starting to have some 'burn offs' here as well. They are often called 'controlled burns' or 'fuel reduction burns'. Both my wife and I commented on the number of fallen leaves in our garden yesterday - so it must be early autumn rather than late summer I suppose!
