It's grey and overcast outside at the moment - and we have a better than 50% chance of rain this afternoon. I hope the rain happens, but without any lightning. My kits are out playing in the back yard; and I'm getting ready to go to the Erie Farmer's Market. My friend Nancy is the percissionist in a folk/rock band and they are on stage from 10 until noon today - I can't wait to hear them. I've already fed and walked Rosie and Remy, and Barndi; I've fed and watered and cleaned potty boxes for Patches and Phoenix, and Sasquatch and Tugger. This afternoon I have to check on Twister and Tinkerbell and gather the hens' eggs...
With the dampness in the air, I don't smell smoke for the first time in a week. The High Park fire has spread to 54,230 acres, and is now about 20% contained. It has cost over $9.1 million to fight this fire and protecet homes so far. And the homes lost count has now been revised - back to above 100 homes; 112 to be exact.
