It was rather strange to see black smoke coming out of the fields on our drive to Jerusalem from Netivot.
I had been trying to photograph the gorgeous sunset.
What happens down south in Israel? Since unlike the reports of fires in the rest of the country, I hadn't heard anything in the news.
I know that Israelis do have a strange, to my New York mind, and dangerous custom of burning weeds, even in residential areas, like Shiloh. It drives me nuts when there are fires in gardens, but there's no way I can stop it. My neighbors say that it keeps the snakes away.
Does anyone know more?
