I can't help but notice (from downtown) that it's really hazy from smoke this morning... you can see the smoky haze on the butte(s), and the air is a bit brown on the horizon. Smells strong, too. Since it seems a bit late for field burning, and I don't know of any forest fires, did everybody wake up this morning and decide to fire up their woodstoves?

Ah, here's the source: Worried residents told: Smoke just planned burn. A 200-acre controlled burn near LaPine. KTVZ and Barney come through!
