This is my place for writing and reflecting on life here in the mountains. Close to the sky, close to my children and family and most certainly feeling the closeness of God my Savior.
15439 acres are toast, but Bambi escaped. on monday morning the sky looks much better, and my life has taken a HUGE turn for the better. Love makes such a difference.
i think they have this one handled. 86 percent contained as of tuesday night and much cooler weather is helping thm to finish up. God bless te firefighters an dtheir amilies, who mustnot see much of their men durig the peak fire sason.
Living life, higher at 7000 feet elevation. Where the smell of pines, a distinct nip in the air, the sunset and sunrise displays of color and light fill your soul and set your spirit soaring. From high atop the mountains, nowhere near the city, I think, I write, I try to make you laugh. It is just me, my oxygen deprived brain and my bird and squirrel friends.
I am a lover of God, and I am a lover of life. My three wonderful children help me be a better man, and I consider fatherhood my most important role. These kids have made my life meaningful and filled with beauty. Nothing compares to them or gets between us.
My mom lived 91 years and as youngest I was privileged to make sure she was comfortable and safe in her own home, was never alone, had plenty of friends and family coming around. She knew, before she passed away, how much we kids appreciated all she did for us over the many years.
I am the youngest of five. I have ADD and it makes me fun, or irritating, depending on who you ask.
Most of all I am real, so this blog has fun aspects and then serious writings, too. You get both, for one click of the mouse.

4000 acres at mid day yesterday has grown to 14,000 acres as of 1 am Sunday, God knows where it stops, so I will go to church and ask him.
I'm worried for you. Please keep us updated if you can.
You manage to find beauty in a frightening event. How do you do that?
I'm praying that the flames are beaten into history, where they belong.
And I'm praying that this does not affect you. Stay safe, mon ami.
It is scary. Stay safe...
Not again! Good luck with the winds n helicopters.
Beautiful billowing, but hope that photo op takes a rest very quickly!
