CouesWhitetail Report post Posted June 28, 2011 Wow!! I didn't know about it, but I just looked out that way and there is a giant amount of smoke out that way......ugh!!!! Could have been dry lightning, there have been lots of clouds building. Hopefully the rain storms they are predicting will help put it out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
