This is a fire that started across the highway from where we live it was started by lightning. It burned over 2,000 acres. The National Guard sent a helicopter to help fight the fire. It’s still smoking and they are still working on the hot spots.
This is a wood Chuck that landed in our window well. We tried to encourage it to climb out but we finally had to call someone to come get it out.
