*blue skies were rare for a while. Major forest fires stretched over 2 provinces and the air was thick and grey- weather reports on the radio were often "smokey". Some days we were able to stare directly at the sun, which appeared as a huge glowing red ball in the sky. Photos just don't do any justice compared to seeing this strange beauty first-hand. The sun's reflection on the water was like dancing fire.  (see below)
