Smoke On The (Albury/Wodonga)

With news on the fire front being fairly quite in the media the last couple of days, the N.E. Victorian fires are still burning very fiercely.

In Albury/Wodonga these are the conditions we are still having to endure. I feel very sorry for anyone here who suffers with a respiratory condition.

Good shots John, we are starting to smell the smoke inside the house today. Funny how those golden arches come through the smoke though.

Let's pray the rain as promised comes tomorrow, and dampens this inferno.
