Jace, thank you for asking. No we are not affected by the fires, which are further south over an hour and a half away in Ocean County. My son is planning to go to Atlantic City (Atlantic County) on Friday to stay at our timeshare and visit with his daughter, who's in college down there. I'm hoping the smoke has cleared so that visibility isn't hampered on the parkway. Part of the parkway was shut down yesterday for a time, but has since reopened. However, the smoke is supposedly affecting the air quality in PA., N.Y. and other parts of N.J. So far, I haven't seen or smelled smoke where we are.
@PeppermintPatty Thank you for calling my attention to this post.

Yes, they sure can Patty. So far I haven't heard of any deaths in these fires, thank God. Of course I do feel for anyone who has lost their home, businesses and/or jobs due to the fire.
