Back in Utah!

Hey everyone,

I am back in Utah and have definitely gotten behind on the blogging, mainly because of fires and what not, but here are some updates...from fire since that is about all I have been doing the last few months. These first few are from Cali, up by Redding, it was quite the adventure... These first few were taken at night across the lake, from where our tents were staked out.
These next few are also from Cali, in the day time, it wasn't a bad deal to get paid to go see these amazing waterfalls along the fireline.


Fishy Faces
Then here are a few of the fun PT hike, wahoo!

Yes, that is definitely sweat, but feeling pretty good at this point, only another mile of uphill to go :)
Sheena and I, yeah girls kicked this hike!

These next pics are from fighting fire in Yellowstone, our one big fire that we had.


Driving through the fire, definitely a new experience


Fire burning at nightThe bison decided that the helibase was their spot...during their rut season, which was fun for us to try and avoid the horny, irritable bison, who kept doing their mating call, which was an attratctive sound, something like a burp mixed with a throw up sound. I don't know how us women could detain ourselves, sheesh

A smoky morning mixed with fogSome more fog and steam coming off Fishing Bridge in Yellowstone in the morning not a bad deal, even fire seems to create some cool stuff like this

Those really are some sweet pics, I especially like the ones with the fire reflected against the water. So are pics from Bali about to be posted....?
