These weren’t clouds but smoke from the Rim Fire the fire was far to close for comfort, destroying parts of Yosemite, areas outside of Tuolumne and causing Mandatory evacuations! Thankfully this wasn’t like the Camp Fire in Paradise that killed about seven dozen people but air quality was so poor schools were cancelled for a week!
We went to the Red Cross shelter donating toys, toiletries, bottled waters knowing that we would want the same done for us and knowing too some of our friends had been evacuated!

You did a great job of helping people in distress 6 years ago. What a good memory you have.

@Michellekidwell But you had able to overcome it. Your fear had given the strength to help those in trouble.
