Hi from windy MN.  It wasn't quite as bad today and the sun was out.  Sure hope this wind thing settles down, a nice rain would be wonderful.

Cori and Josh are across the road from a bad fire up in Bismarck.  It was near the University of Mary and they evacuated students and some people living there.  It hadn't jumped across the road so praying for them that it doesn't.  It had been contained and then had reignited this afternoon.  The heat and wind make it prime conditions for fire.  I don't think that possibility is gone yet, so will be thinking of them.  Cori said she had their bags packed.  

I forgot to mention (and should have taken a picture) that on Sunday when I was in WalMart in the pet food aisle, I noticed when the lady next to me turned around, that there was a little head poking out of her bag!  She had a Yorkie in there!  And he was so good, didn't say peep.  She said he weighed about 5#.  Cute, cute.  But the greeter must have missed it, I don't think they would have wanted it in the store.

Also, the Branches Band have a website - www.branchesband.com  They could play a large assortment of instruments.  He played the 12 string and the 6 string guitar, a harmonica, and at one point he whistled!  You sure don't hear that much anymore.  If they come to your area, try to see them, it's well worth it.

The Health and Wellness guy stopped in this afternoon, we learned some more important things.  Never too old, I guess.  He was a nice fellow, not high pressure at all.  He lives in Detroit Lakes, and shared some stories of time there, as that is where we used to go for our week at the lake.  

I'm trying to get through Dancing With the Stars from Monday.  We had DVR'd that, and Orrin doesn't really care if he watches it. He will if we're home when it's on.  I'm only half way through, it's Disney week and quite entertaining.

Well, that's all from here, have a great evening, what's left of it.  I have bible study in the morning, should be home by lunch.

Hugs, Orrin, Linda and Teddy
