Each day a morning glance out the window produced a much covered blue sky. Yes, covered with smoky smog floating down from numerous mountain fires. Many firefighters and people have been knee deep in putting out fires on surrounding mountains. The valleys have had hundreds of smoke pouches sur- rounding the valley atmosphere. We columnists have been glanc- ing about us to see and smell the damage dropping to the valley. Many valley people are fighting the inhaling of smoke as it can be harm- ful to those who breathe it into their nostrils. At any rate, I am not sit- ting outside to compose a column. An acquaintance has been ask- ing me when the Editor is going to have a Columnists night when the general public could come and get acquainted with the word smiths.
