    A few days ago on the way home from Wharton I was headed south on 54 and I could see a big fire smoke cloud to the SW of Hammonton and west of about Newtonville.I imagine that was a controlled burn since I heard no news about it.Looked like it may have been the western edge of Williamstown WMA?
