Wishing all my fellow American friends a Happy 4th of July. I took this photo from our back patio a few days ago. The Wasatch front can have such lovely Summer sunsets.
This was a photo we took last night from our back patio.
We are spending an uneasy 4th of July, as a forest fire burns the mountain behind our home. Our neighbors just down the street have been evacuated. Luckily we haven’t been and I doubt that we will be.
This is the roof our neighbors home and a photo we took from our front yard of the fire this afternoon. The photo cannot capture how truly terrifyingly large the plumes of flame and smoke are.
We are praying for calmer winds and cooler temperatures. We pray for our neighbors whose homes are nestled against the mountainside. Most of all we are praying for the firefighters and pilots that are in harm’s way working to save homes and keep us safe.
