A storm, fires, and smoke!,




We have been burried in a cloud of smoke all week, due to 100's of fires that started in our county after an entire day of lightning storms saturday. It was an amazing light show, and we sat humbled and awed by God's power all day as we watched lightning strike in our own back yard and all around us. For the first time ever, I saw lightning hit something. It was amazing as an entire roof illuminated when it struck. We were grateful for a safe house. We are safe from fire danger, all though the fires are raging in all of the surrounding foot hills 10-20 miles away. Here is a picture I took coming home to our house. When we come up the hill, the smoke gets so much more dense than it is in the center of town. The other picture is of the sun which appears bright orange all day despite the look of being in a San Francisco fog. The first pic is of the sky before the storm hit. You could tell something was happening. It was a little erie!
