Florida Is Burning.

I've missed school due to snow, flood, Tropical storm... and now, forest fire.

Smoke and haze from wildfires continues.

Friday it was smoky, hazy, and school was called at 12:50 pm.


It's not too bad at this point.


Kids with asthma have it tough.


Math Quiz: Yay!


Buddy seemingly isn't bothered by the smoke.


Nothing interferes with Buddy getting his "fetch" on.


Focus... focus... he's about to throw it... steady....


There he goes!


Another successful return!

Just like a super foggy morning...


...but with your allergies all firing up at once.


"Hello... (cough, hack...), Welcome to WalMart..."


Lights are a neccessity.


Visibility is poor, and Interstate 75 South and I-10 East have been closed. It's backroads at this point... or turn you ass around.
