To the Editor:

After breathing months of smoke due to wildfires we now apparently have to breathe another month or two of prescribed fire smoke.

Well, I am saying enough is enough. I do not have a lung condition as do many people living in Sisters; however this being said almost five months of fire-related smoke has made me use an inhaler numerous times throughout the summer. Now I must endure prescribed burn smoke! Why?

Haven't we endured enough smoke? I should think there would be enough common sense not to inflict more damage to citizens' lungs.

So I say enough is enough! Stop making unnecessary smoke. I know there is money involved for those who are doing the prescribed burns, but again enough is enough!
