The first thing we noticed this morning was the smell of smoke inside of our house. When we walked outside it looked there was a heavy fog all over Grand Junction but it wasn't fog, it's smoke from the Pine Gulch Fire. We hope that the wildfire gets 100% contained soon and our thoughts are with everyone working hard to stop it.
