Those in the lumber industry say it’s going to take some time to get back to normal.
It was a day full of smoke and clouds in Lafayette Friday.
“It’s going to be smoky in Lafayette for a while, for a couple of days at least,” said Lt. Mark McManus of the Lafayette Fire Department.

COLUMBIA, Md., Feb. 12, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, MISSION BBQ announced the donation of $362,320, to Wreaths Across America
TM (WAA). This contribution was made possible thanks to the generosity of Our Customers and their support of the American Heroes Cups. The donation will help to sponsor over 36,000 veterans' wreaths to remember our fallen U.S. service members during the 2021 holiday season.
"We remain proud and humbled to stand with Wreaths Across America and the amazing work they continue to do to Remember, Honor and Teach," said Bill Kraus, co-founder for MISSION BBQ.

'Our knock on the door came on Christmas morning' -- Gold Star mother leads Wreaths Across America convoy


"We're all getting a taste of what military families live with all the time," Worcester expressed. 
It's why she says she and her team were determined to make this mission happen this year for those military families who can't always get to their loved ones' graves.
"Wreaths Across America puts a light on...not only those that serve but those strong families," Worcester told NEWS CENTER Maine. "I just love that we're connecting the dots all over the country."
"I want to make sure that we cover Arlington, so nobody has to come there and say, 'What about my son?' Or 'What about my daughter?'" Wayne Hanson, the chairman of the WAA board of directors, added. He's a Vietnam veteran who joined WAA as a volunteer more than 25 years ago. He says on a trip to Arlington National Cemetery in 2013, he met a man whose son's grave wasn't covered with a wreath -- and that's when Hanson made it a point to make sure all graves get covered.
