Yesterday afternoon while DH & DW watched the Nascar race, DH walked past the back patio door and noticed what he thought was a monsoon storm brewing. He told DW to grab the camera and come take a look at the AWESOME storm. Upon further watching of the storm brewing both DW & DH noticed something actually building up from the ground below. Both wondered, was it a fire?
DH hopped on the Internet only to read of a fire that had started north of Phoenix.
Here are a couple of photos of what we could see from our backyard. The fire is approximately 50 miles to the north of us. It's truly amazing how much and how far one can see here when a fire starts.
Just before bed, we looked out our upstairs window and could actually see the red glow from the fire!
DH got home from work tonight and walked out to the backyard to see DW had filled a little blue plastic pool with water to allow the dogs to cool off. It was so cute to see them huddled together enjoying the cool water.
The most impressive part was DW had her bathing suit on in anticipation to our up-coming move. She is so excited at the fact that when it gets hot here in the valley that we can FINALLY jump in some water and refresh ourselves. I wish we had a photo of her standing ankle deep in the pool when I walked out on the patio. She seemed a little surprised...........
