I follow a youtube watercolor artist who does monthly painting challenges and her challenge for September is "Fall colors."
I think I'm going to try to paint Multnomah Falls Lodge.
With the Falls in the background.
In Fall colors.
See what I did there?

It sucks that I'm stuck at work all day in this oppressive heat with nothing to do when I could be home painting.
I guess it's time to doodle thumbnails...
the scary part is that if winds shift and start blowing from the east again the fire could potentially spread to some heavily populated areas.
This is how close the fire is to Portland:

I-84 is closed from Troutdale (the west end of the blue line) to Hood River.
This is a map of what's burning as of yesterday (it's a little zoomed in from the map above):
