The fire has spread to 60 acres. It is not threatening any homes right now, so we can be thankful for that. I was wrong. It was caused by lightening, not humans. Today is a very windy day, with gusts up to 40-50 mph. This is bad news when it comes to containing the fire.

Petey and Connor are going to a friend's house to play this morning. As always when I have alone time, I'm having a hard time deciding how to spend my time. Shall I do something productive like clean and pack, or shall I do something purely indulgent such as lay around and read the whole time....

I love having this choice!
