Fire

 Below are photos coming in from friends and family. 

My brother-in-law, Sam, is stationed in the Colorado Springs. He has been able to watch the smoke from the Waldo Canyon fire for the past few days.

The view from his deck:

Evac time

 Sam was evacuated late last night.

Another friend, Joe, in the Springs was evacuated a while ago. The fire has been tearing through his neighborhood and we are hoping that his family's house is spared.

A fire started yesterday just west of Boulder. Auntie Molly is currently digging fire line in Boulder today. They are hoping to keep the fire out of Boulder proper. We are hoping the weather cooperates.

Another friend is also working the fire in Boulder. Sterling is an assistant chief for one of the outlying communities but everyone seems to have been pulled in.

Thoughts, prayers, positive vibes...whatever we can send their way. The folks here in Colorado need it.
