burnt skies

We are surrounded by fires. Thank God our personal home is not affected. I just realized that our family's vacation home in lake arrowhead may be in the line of fire. We are not sure exactly but they have evacuated the area. Our families are safe and that is what matters. the skys are freaky! they are orange and thick. the air is horrible. the kids can't even go outside and play. we have 3 humidifiers going and it is still dry here. the soot is covering our patio and seeping inthrough the cracks. my floor shave a film of filth on them. my car is brown with soot. the only time we left today was to pick upithe kids and to go to Target to buy humidifiers. my sweet little sedona coughed the whole time.

it is disgusting!

please pray for those who are strugling with this. and that the wind goes down, it is fierce!

thanks!!!!!
