ABQ sky

We have some crazy weather here in ABQ sometimes.  The wind can get crazy strong, crazy fast. On 6/12 we were outside playing and chatting with our neighbor when the wind started getting really strong. We gathered our things quickly and Brian went to get the camera while I went to save our friends stuff that she had left outside before leaving to run errands.

 This is the view from our back patio.  The next day at work Brian found out that this huge wind storm had lifted a plane, that was on the ground being worked on, five feet up in the air. They had to do a hard landing inspection on it because it flopped back down so hard!

These pictures were taken on a not so bad day from our bedroom windows. The mountains can usually be seen very well.  We have had Air Quality alerts everyday since the fires started. I haven't watched the news in a while but it seems that at least the sky here has finally cleared up.
