This 
iswhat FourmileCanyon looked like around mid-morning on Reid's birthday! Humidity has dropped to around 5% and we're having a very windy day. This one looks like it could be pretty big- there are reliable reports of several homes lost already. We were enjoying a beautiful morning and the coller weather this wind is bringing in when Kate arrived back from her hike and pointed out the apocalyptic looking plume of smoke building behind Mt. Sanitas. Evacuations are widespread and the sky is a hazy orange or bluebird blue depending on w
hich way the wind is shifting.
We had a great little backpack trip down the Ceran St. Vrain Canyon on Sat. night- caught some trout and frie
d them and enjoyed some guy time.
Reid's wish for h
is birthday festivities was
to go on a bike ride with some of his buds and have a barbeque afterwards. Right now, we're waiting for the pulled pork to finish slow cooking and the big 11 year-old middle schooler is goofing aro
und on the trampoline
with his pals. He's h
aving a good transition to Casey, bu
t he's getting killed with homework, especial
ly Spanish because h
e's doing t
he bilingual program. Time to work on those time
management
and study skills! On
the posit
ive side, his new school is beautiful and he's making
new friends and getting involved with the bike club. I'm really sorry for the layout of this post, but blogger is driving me nuts! Hope you can read it!
Love, Rico
