Day 338

Remember that Kootenai fire? It’s still going…bigger and badder than ever. Here was our view this evening…

This is essentially the same view as this. I had a very hard time getting focus because of the amount of smoke. The image looks a bit grainy, but that is the smoke in the air.

And I just want it known that the Blogger search feature is not working, and it’s making me MAD!! What’s the point of putting labels on all my posts if I can’t find the post by searching???!!! Apparently, they’re “working on it.”

Day 283

That fire I mentioned a few weeks ago – the Kootenai fire – flared up again yesterday. This afternoon we got quite a view of it from here. For those interested, here’s some relatively current info - http://www.inciweb.org/incident/1733/

Here’s a zoomed-out view to give some perspective…

Despite the fire, we had a great day at VBS. Great music (and fun dancing!), a good lesson, and an interesting craft…but I won’t bore you with those photos. If you want to see them, you can check out the church’s Facebook Page.

Here is one shot of my sweet friend Sissy. You’ve seen her before…doesn’t she just keep getting cuter?? She turned 3 yesterday. What a sweetheart.
