He had nightmares that the mountains just east of his house were volcanic. We joke that he should have been more worried that they would crumble in an earthquake. Today as I watch this out my window, I am wondering if perhaps his dreams are coming true.
I watched the first drift of smoke and thought "oh, no- not our beautiful American Fork canyon" * (Paul proposed to me up that canyon!). Now the drift is a scary plume and it doesn't look good. Cross your fingers that there are some trees left when this fire is done!

| This picture was taken 5 minutes after the one above- the change in the smoke plume gives you an idea how fast the fire is growing. |
*PS Paul just got home and informed me I had my canyons wrong- the fire is burning up the canyon behind alpine- so American Fork is safe for now!
we called him Pollywog.

ReplyDeletehee hee Suz, I hit enter and it posted my title! Now, it should make more sense! Can you see the smoke?
DeleteSounds like there's lots of fires there! If we don't have rain here soon, we might start to have the same problem here.
