The Fire Burning Behind Our House...

I think they should rename it...
Last night was pretty scarey. We could see the bright red clouds of smoke and flames on the ridge behind our house from our bedroom window. I had a hard time taking my eyes off it lying in bed. It didn't help when the smoke alarm went off at 2a.m. and Porter is in a panic state.
The helicopters don't go at night, but we had A LOT (a hundred, maybe) of fire trucks racing along the road behind our house (Cathedral Oaks). It is actually closed at Glenn Annie where they have set up a command center.

More Solstice Parade

ya gotta love this parade, even in 90 degrees
cutie quinnee

check out max's moves; watch out joker, he's batman(seriously, he says his new name is batman)

The Solstice Parade

was HOT, and we were at the end (bad move) so waited and waited and waited...
sophie couldn't take it, so she bailed early - smart girl.
the Gleasons were more well prepared with an umbrella.

this was my favorite float, very hippie, i know.

Solstice kickoff

Celebrating the longest day of the year is a lot of fun in SB. Tree climbing and heel kickin'
Justin is my buddy. We like to do the same things, like the crazy dance,
run, wiggle and tackle Bo, j's dad.
