Work Day

Work day at Mom's. We took Jessie down with us and Andy and family came over and Susan and the kids helped Carleen and Mom mulch and rake up the leaves and bag them and clean her yard. Mom fed us a yummy lunch of BBQ burgers, salads and chocolate cake for dessert.

While the kids were cleaning up the leaves, John and Andy rerouted her internet cable through the attic, it's been going through her window and she couldn't close it completely!

I did a bit of decluttering on Mom's computer and Andy removed some programs to hopefully help it run faster. Robbie came down and we had a good visit with her and I showed her how to do some things she was wanting to learn on her computer. I brought home a little photo to scan for her, a cute little Robbie when she was about 3.

The wind started picking up after lunch and by the time we headed for home it was pretty strong. A storm is headed our way with wind and maybe some snow.

On the way home we ran into an area of thick smoke and wondered what was going on, then we started seeing fire, quite a large area on both sides of the Springerville to ShowLow highway with spots of red fire showing! It was about 5 or 6 miles from town. Glad the wind was blowing the smoke away from town! Hope they get the fire out before it gets to any houses!
