Photos from today...



Smoke and sun this evening....

Doe I ran into down at the property tonight.

I went down to check the pool and go swimming. I couldn't figure out what all the black stuff was floating on the surface of the water at first and then it dawned on me...soot and ash, duh! I am praying they get the Bastrop fire contained soon, last time I checked it was still at 0% containment. I feel for all the people effected by the Texas wildfires and all the Men and Women fighting them. We are getting the smoke plume from the Bastrop wildfire.


I haven't been down to the creek in a couple of weeks and was shocked when I walked down there. The water is no longer flowing, sheesh we need rain.

There is water in the deeper parts but no water flowing at all, poor fish!

Sunset...those aren't clouds but smoke!

Eerie sunset!

I took a photo at 12:40pm today and it was smokey, but at 4:48pm it was really bad and the fire is 2 hours from us, ekk.
