We have a high haze going at the moment but other than the neighbors bbq
pit I can't smell any smoke. My daughter, north of Houston, says they have
smoke laying down around the house enough to warrant staying indoors. Also
said the school where she teaches is keeping the kids in off the
playground. Suspect we will get it worse in a few days if it doesn't rain.
El Nino/La Nina, one or the other, is giving us near drought conditions at
the moment. No appreciable rainfall since March 16, 1998, an unusual
situation for us. We're having to water the plants, something we seldom
have to do. 

Thanks for thinking of us.
