Today we watched a fire burn close to Albany.  This is looking down the road from the entrance to our neighborhood. 

We watched the smoke form amazing clouds. 

 

We watched airplanes fight the fire. 

We watched helicopters fight the fire. 

 

We watched the land still smouldering and prayed that no houses were lost.

We watched the sun try to peek through the smoke. 

It was pretty amazing to watch...but very sad knowing what was actually going on. 

And after things calmed down with the fire a bit we came home and the kids got stealthy and we watched deer.

Every night we have 8-10 that come up to feed.  They really aren't even phased by us being out there.

It is pretty cool.
