Day 26- The fire is out of control:(

The fire went from 1500 acres to 10,000 tonight.  They closed down I-70 when we were getting pictures at around 7pm.  They are now saying it isn't if it will cross I-70 but when:(  It is already burning islands in the colorado river and the wind is going prity good this evening.  We have lightning all around us right now so praying no more fires sparked.  Our biggest concern is the smoke.  It is settling in the valley we live in.  Please pray for help with all these fires near and far.

This is from my porch.  The spot is the sun and that isn't a cloud that is the smoke from the fire.  My house smells like a giant campfire.

Day 25- Fires are never good-especially to close to home

I tried to do this last night but our internet was being silly.  This fire started yesterday not to far from eric work.  he took pictures of it when they were first told and it isn't very big.  But by the time we went to Grand Junction and home it had grown a huge amount in only a few hours.  We could see the flames from the interstate at DeBeque.  I wish the camera could get a better picture.  It is still not controlled and if winds pick up there is a town not to far so praying for rain and great crews!!

when it first started to show about 1:30pm

3:00 pm

From grand junction.  It is so big it is making its own clouds now.

you can just barely see a spot above the cliff in the middle.  that is one of the helicopters that is dipping water out of the river there.  Was happy to see 3 helicopters and bomber plane.

from here we could see lots of flames

Day 24-Special Event Ahead(late I am sorry)

So from the first time my husband seen this sign it made him laugh like crazy!!! I asked him what he was laughing for.  He said I want that sign for the bedroom door:)  Oh wow.  Men:)

Day 23- My Handsome is Home:) YAY!!!

My Handsome got home today:)  He even got home way earlier than planned so it was awesome!!!  I am so glad to have him home even if it is only for a little while:)  Love this man more than anything!!!

Day 22- The Birds

Not the best picture but I looked out to see what horses doing and they were surrounded and covered in birds.  By the time I got my camera quite a few were already gone.  But was still neat to see!  Love to watch birds sit on horses backs.  I don't know why but it always makes me smile!

and boy does my horse need her mane brushed!

Day 21- Just mooooooseying on over to say hello

I so missing ranching and especially the baby cows:)  The neighbor cows came over to say hello and get a little treat of old hay we couldn't feed to the horses.  They are so fun to watch.  Sorry pics not the best.  My phone doesn't take the best pics.
