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.

Arrowhead inferno
west of us - an hour away three times in two months
The California fire situation has been so bad with the Santa Ana's in the south on the news. Apparently drought has made it worse than usual. Wondering if rainfall there is low up there this year too?
Good luck to you n your neighbors up there. Just seeing the smoke is enough to distract me-
P.S the images looks really cool even though it has caused so much disruption. Also, is that a big crack in the middle of the road? thts also a bit freaky.
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.

no danger and we get to stray home, though tonight it is smoky
