The sun was behind the smoke as it went down last night. We had a wild fire about five miles from my place. We couldn't really see much, no flames or heavy smoke. Look like it burn about 20 acres, which now is 25% contained. No homes was lost. But some out-building where lost. Not sure the cause of the fire.
Niece Edith and her husband Hans. Hans mother Qamra and her daughter Eirween had to be advocated. I don't know when the last time Qamra left her place. There quite a story behind these two. Actual it sad. Qamra mother died in state mental hospital. Looks like Qamra is following some of the same pattern. The local paper did an article on the FIRE. And posted on line. Our print paper comes out on Thursday. They might know the cause. (Niece Edith Photo)
Usually at night we open the windows, to let the cool air come though the house. With the smoke we didn't open the place. So the house never had chance to cool down. I got up around 7 in morning and it was fairly warm already. Looks like we will be having some cooler temps and rain. I just hope there enough rain to combat for possible lightening.
We did a few things. Took care of some paperwork. I know I mention it in my last post. But I got some file, then there where small amount I toss in a garbage can. The other bit needs to be put in the safety deposit box. Murphy and I tried to fix some sprinkles. I think we should just go buy one. We went to the senior center we had lasagna, with lamb. Plus green beans, toast, green salad, peaches.
Coffee is on.
I hope they get that fire out, that's a little too close.
ReplyDeleteI hope the fire is properly out by now and nobody got hurt.
