This is a little OT but with the valley full of smoke here's a fire that's effecting me.

I've been building a Water Treatment Plant this summer near Wenatchee, WA up Lake Chelan near Holden Village. I've been rotating with my employee so 2 weeks on/off and they man-camp us at Holden Village. We were evacuated on July 31st because of the Wolverine fire that got more aggressive. Now they are fighting to save Holden Village and our job site may also be lost. The fire is at 37,000 acres.

A great website to see all the fires in US is: http://inciweb.nwcg.gov/incident/4354/
