Yes, you've heard the news by now. And for many of us, it's getting old and frustrating, but I thought I'd give a quick take on our situation here amongst the firegrounds...Eating dinner Sunday night, we noticed an ominous black cloud out our back window. I commented, looks like rain but that doesn't make sense considering how dry and windy it was that day (thank you, Santa Anas). And then it was really dark and I thought, it's fall, days are getting so short! But then we looked out the front window and it was still light out, blue skies! So at roughly 5:30pm, dusk, I took some pictures of the smoke cloud coming our way. Four days later, we still have orange skies, people have lost homes (no one we know although both our pastors have their cars loaded up prepped for evacuation), and we're all going very, very stir crazy from being locked inside a very hot and stuffy house! It's been in the 80's and we can't open the windows due to poor air quality! I don't want to whine considering what others have lost but it's been a challenging few days. In conclusion, we're not in danger and are doing fine except for cabin fever and sinus headaches. We're just praying for rain to clean the air and for safety for all our brave firefighters. Consider praying with us...we need relief!
