Another fire broke out in the north state. This one is the Stafford Fire and is threatening the town of Hayfork. These fires with all the destruction and chaos they bring with them often finish the day with one last bit of drama.
In California we don’t think about if we have a fire, but rather where will the fire occur this year. Fire is something we have to live with. Unfortunately, some years are worse than others, and this was one of those bad years. The smoke clouded our skies for months this summer, and many of our friends and neighbors were directly impacted by the fires. It was very difficult for the families that lost their homes. Fortunately, we have a good fire fighting service here so we forge on.
i’ve just recovered from a three-week illness that was most likely triggered by guayaquil’s traffic pollution.
asthma, bronchitis and emphysema were all possible diagnoses. while sick with a nonstop cough, i pondered how difficult it would be to live where there are fires/
yes, thank goodness you have a good fire fighting service!
Hoping for the safety of those fighting the fire and for the town of Hayfork.

Indeed, the fire was at 3,300 acres last night with 1,100 firefighters working it. Hayfork isn’t out danger yet.

We will keep our fingers crossed. Goodluck and God speed to all the firefighters.

They have lifted most of the evacuations for Hayfork. It isn’t contained, but they are getting a handle on it.

Reblogged this on Ta hendene til din kjære – se på dem og hold dem hardt Disse hendene skal du følge, leie og lede. Du skal få føle på varmen fra dem og kjenne en inderlig glede. De skal stryke deg og de skal holde rundt deg – de er ikke skapt for å såre i vrede For du skal ikke alene mer vandre. De skal klemme og kose og aldri klandre De skal skjerme deg for det du ikke selv ser. De skal elske og aldri forakte – bare hjelpe når du ber. Disse hendene skal jobbe for at dere skal få det godt De skal gi – og du skal takke for det du har fått. De skal tvinnes sammen i kjærlighet og være ømme og gode og et tegn på inderlighet Hendene du holder er sterke og unge De skal gjennom mye for din skyld når dagene er tunge De skal stryke og klemme og være gode og fromme De skal ruske i ditt hår og takke når dagen er omme Disse hendene skal følge deg gjennom livet. De skal holde fast ved deg og verne om samlivet De skal være hos deg når alle andre har gått De skal aldri slippe men holde fast og tørke tårer når du har grått. Hendene skal bære din ring med rette Den skal skinne og for alle berette Jeg elsker deg! – kan den bekjenne Det er bare en som har maken til denne En dag er hendene blitt ru og grå Hver fure og rynke forteller om livet som bak dere lå Dere kan minnes den dagen i dag – da et livslangt bånd Ble knyttet Og fra denne dag dere gikk Hånd i hånd. and commented:
Kjempe fin blogg❤️😄👍
