No joke this time. This fire is intense. So far reports are coming in that quite a few homes have burned down and a couple 1000 acres. It's burning hot and fast! It started on Monday morning, and unfortunately the 65 mile an hour gusts didn't help and it spread fast! (photo courtesy of Joan) Luckily our house is a few miles north and a few valleys over from the fire but I woke up in the middle of the night and had to close the windows because the smoke had settled into our valley. Took this picture driving into Boulder yesterday to grab some groceries. It was thick in town and ash was falling everywhere. (photo courtesy of Joan) Thoughts and prayers are with those who are fighting this fire and for those who's lives are being turned upside down by this thing. Much Love!

Stella and I busted up to Steamboat on Saturday morning for a few days of hot springs , hiking, biking, relaxing and playing. It was beautiful!!!! Great weather, great friends, and beautiful views. It doesn't get much better! The Saturday morning drive through the National Park in Estes on our way to Steamboat! Every time I drive through the park, it always amazes me. The views are stunning! I didn't get too many pictures this weekend. We were too busy playing. Here's one of Stella and I on the deck at the cabin on the Adam's Ranch. Hope everyone had a wonderful Labor Day weekend! Much Love!
