From the news down here in Australia, the raging infernos have looked dreadful Gael…. I’m so pleased to hear from you, and that you are safe and well. I enjoyed reading your wonderful family story and the tradition about ‘Tres Pinos’…. I’m hoping the worst of the situation has eased off for you, and everyone involved… ((Hugs)) and remain safe..

My heart breaks for all those who are not so fortunate. As you know, we lived through wildfires that ringed our city and caused the evacuation of the entire population. We didn’t think the fire would be a problem. We were wrong. Many people lost their homes, so I really empathize with all Americans currently enduring the stress and worry and send up prayers for them. I know how stressful it was for us, but to have to go through this, in the midst of a pandemic, will take extraordinary courage and strength.
I love your story about the cabin and family legacy. I am so glad it is safe. You are most blessed. ❤

Carol, it has been an emotional rollercoaster. Lots of anxiety and fear–fires, viruses, and politics. As many have said–2020 can go to hell. Wait. This is hell!!!
Thanks for reading!

Thank you. We check in with the firefighters twice a day on their Facebook page to see if we are still there. So far, so good.

So much damage and turmoil in our mountains!! So very sad and scary! I’m so happy your cabin and Camp Nelson in general ‘made it!’ So much history there and as you said, so many stories to share with others. Thinking of you Gizzy and always sending hugs!
