We saw the fire up in the canyon on Saturday when we were at the zoo. It made me sad because of the beautiful hikes and views we enjoy up there.
Today I cried. We were out in our yard working this afternoon and I could see the fire come over that ridge and the dark smoke coming with it.
This picture is from our backyard. That mountain peak is Pikes Peak.
We stood there watching in disbelief knowing that there were homes there. There were friends there. I just couldn’t stop the tears and the prayers.
Shortly after that last picture, the smoke engulfed us and you couldn’t really see anything. Tonight as I looked out Jacob’s window into the black night, I could see the fires burning. It’s HUGE! I just couldn’t stop crying at the massive destruction. So sad!
