Sunday morning.
Sunday afternoon from our house.
Sunday night in Old Town at the Taste of Fort Collins.
The ever changing smoke clouds...
In the midst of it all we went to the Taste to see Mat Kearney in concert.
It felt weird to go when you knew what was going on behind you.
It was crazy having ash fall in our laps.
48 hours after the fire started (by lightning) I was at the pool for Tennison's swim lesson, dusting ash off a lounge chair. There was only a hint of smoke in the air. The winds, still blowing, died significantly. The smoke clouds barely visible. When we saw the smoke coming "down the mountain" we began to wonder what was happening. Unfortunately it is heading closer to the Horsetooth area. The sunset was more normal than it has been the last couple of days. It has only been close to three days, it feels like a week.
Tonight we spent time with the Sky Corral owner and his crew. We were able to put together a weeks worth of meals for them in a matter of no time. I love being part of a community that joins in so quickly. The ranch has been spared so far, news we are all so happy to hear. 100+ structures have been destroyed, one life lost. The end is no where in sight. Continue to pray for all who are effected.
