Hi Sam~ I live near Napa. Lightning least Night caused 30 fires. We hit 113 the other day, The skies and ashy add an air quality alert. SE have had 100 degree heat for days. One night was 90! Nerve wracking things are. May you do well in Tania's Contest Pangiexx 46 K acres scorched

Thank you for your best wishes and your visit Pangie! When my cousin in LA got into his car, in his driveway, it registered 146 degrees! Didn't realize that Napa had gotten that hot. We have had consistent temperatures of almost 100 - down to high 60's low 70's at night! Like you our air is smokey and the sun is hazy! Sending you blessings and clean air!

We've seen this "tango" every night here for the past week, Sam. Love the way you brought the scene to life in your haiku. The last line is especially amazing. When it's 80 degrees at three in the morning, you can imagine what it's like during the day. Hugs, Carolyn
