Into the woods


Yesterday I woke up around 4:30 am when a neighbor's garage caught fire. And although some damage was done to the house, fortunately everyone got out o.k. Lots of emergency vehicles, fire trucks from 3 stations plus a salvage crew, ambulances, and an electric company vehicle since the fire started when a transformer exploded.

I came home and had computer problems, now that I think about maybe this was related to the electrical stuff but I had power. I didn't have luck getting online until today.

My mom and I went to a native health fair, got our blood sugar tested, had tamales and chili, watched dancers and listened to Red Pony. Then we went to the nearby thrift and dollar stores.

I checked out some books from the library and then went over to Urban Earth's one year anniversary celebration. I volunteered there last mother's day, and think I will try to become a more active member.

Today Laura and I went out to the sugar bush to cut wood with Deb and Jimmy. While we were roasting hot dogs, two young deer walked past. Dante rolled in something that smelled terrible. Very disappointing since one thing I like a lot is the smell of wood smoke, and that was all gone after I gave him a bath.
