Thank You!

Thanks for support, prayers, good thoughts, etc..

We finally got the rain we needed.  One day of it has slight drama (thunder/lightning), but not so severe.  The other days plain rain.

It's rained off and on today, with NO drama either.  The skies here are no longer smoky and smelling like smoke.  Nice to breathe fresh air again.

US Wildfire Activity Web Map

How weird is it, that Canada isn't totally on fire?

Notice also, that at the border of Alaska/Canada and US Mainland/Canada, the fires seem to stop right at the borders.  The two dots on Canada are "YouTube videos filtered by: Wildfire".  So possibly maybe only TWO.

What kind of coincidence is that?  If it is at all.  Why would lightening strike/s mostly target US and leave Canada out?

So what does that tell us?

More Rain Please!

And prayers too!

5 whole minutes of rain, along with some thunder, which started more fires.  Rain is much needed, but WITHOUT the thunder and lightning drama.  How's about 5 hours of it, at the very least.

For about an hour, we had a nice after rain smell, but it wasn't long until the smoke came back in. My eyes burn, my head, chest, and throat hurts, plus I feel kinda dizzy and wiped out due to long period of breathing this smoke.  The cat is not happy either.

Homes have been lost, firefighters and people have already died.


Please pray for us to receive more rain, and just rain only.

We would greatly appreciate it.
