Where there's smoke......

....there's fire.

If you look closely on the left-hand side, you can see

Hubby turning out of our drive to go to the fire.

The wind is really stoking it.

We just stepped out onto the front porch after lunch

and saw what looked like smoke

mingling amongst the clouds.

Sure enough, after one phone call to a neighbor,

we found the source of the fire

which appears to be hay bales burning in a field.

Hubby was out the door and in the fire truck in minutes.

The fire, as of now, is about 10-12 miles away,

but there's a strong wind picking up.

Fall is a season that often brings grass fires to the prairie.

Prayers are going up like smoke to God.
