What's Happening.....

Well....

First the MaleChild left for Ireland...
Doesn't he look Irish?
He's due back next week....

Then
This happened...
and the State closed eight parks in the NW North Carolina area and deployed the rangers and maintenance men to the fires...
I was working Monday, Wednesday and Friday from another park...

Then
This happened....2 miles north of our house...!!
It is now 98% contained, the crosses are still standing and rain is predicted for the next 3 days..
And
because of the fires and winds...
This happened...
that's smoke....not fog...
Which sent my asthma into overdrive...
Then this happened...
 

It's been a fun filled few weeks here at the Twelve Acre Wood! 
 But things are looking up, all the park guys will be home tonight and the parks reopen tomorrow...

  5. You've really had a time of it for sure. All those fires are playing havoc. Here we're fine and everything is normal...seasonal rain and even our first snowfall. I know you'll be glad to have your son home once more but it's nice he got to go !

  6. So glad you finally got some rain and hope that ends the fear of fires. Also hope it knocked the smoke down so you can breathe easier. Nature knows how to bring us to our knees.
