More helicopters. These are two of the helicopters fighting the big fire to the east of our home last Saturday. They made many runs as fast as they could, one helicopter coming as soon as the other had left. They were using one of the few deep holes left in a very low river, and that hole was behind our house. It's hazardous duty, especially when visibility is low like this. I tried to give a salute to these brave firefighters, but I don't think they ever took their eyes off their work.
