[Week 34]: Glimpsing the Power of Fire

[08.15.2013]
Getting my first glimpse of the devastation. 
(I forgot to add this to last week...oops!)
More about my trip home, here.

Good morning, Woo.

I was so excited that this weekend was the Black Forest Festival! One of my favorite events in this small town, and especially encouraging to see the community come together in the midst of clean-up and recovery. The parade was full of so many firetrucks, firefighters and air force personnel that served and fought the fire. So many signs on floats thanking the first responders. Even a fly-by of one of the helicopters who helped drop water on the hot spots.
{And a special HAPPY BIRTHDAY! to my dad! :) }

Wreckage.

[08.19.2013]
Saying good-bye. Heart so full of emotions, trying to make sense of everything I saw.

[08.20.2013]
 Cozy.

The morning sunrise's golden light coming in through the window.
Time to head home after a few blessed weeks house-sitting.

I cringe to think that the morning light takes a bit longer to appear and the evening dusk is dipping below the horizon faster - fall is coming. But it does mean I hit the sunrise and sunset perfectly on the ferry.
