Anyhoo, the rains have stopped for a few days, and so it was time to go for a walk to the Creek. We used to go for long hikes by the Eel River, alas, I have been without wheels for 5.5 years, and we must make do with the Creek, or sometimes, it is just a creekbed. Still it is a “peace of nature” that is available to everyone in the Valley, and I am thankful to live so close.

The first day, I took Sybil.

ASIDE: I alternate walks. And believe me, they keep track. One time, Ilu had acted up, so I took Sybil for a walk twice in a row. Ilu was FURIOUS! So, how did she get me back? SHE ESCAPED.! Now, I know that Iluaki (which means, One Who Does Good Things in Inuit) and Sybil can escape anytime they darn well please! LOL!! They are just being respectful and kind by staying in the yard. Funny thing is that Ilu escaped into the neighbor’s yard, and was trapped until he let her out! HAHA!

Back to the Creek…. watch the entire playlist.

My Fire Water Story

On Sunday June 28, 2015, there were two fires in Round Valley. Here is my Fire Water Story.

Here is a slide show of my yard and the neighborhood  after the fire.

Two fires that erupted within 45 minutes of each other in the remote Mendocino County community of Covelo burned at least four structures Sunday afternoon, including one residence.

This page has some good photos.

This lot is right across the street from me.
The houses on fire were directly across the street from this lot on the other side….

Here is some information on the red flame retardant that was used. Still needing to determine if my water and land has been poisoned…

Information on Tefnut

http://www.landofpyramids.org/tefnut.htm

 The function of Tefnut is described as being the lioness goddess of rain, water and moisture

Tefnut, the lion headed goddess of water, is often depicted on the coffins of the deceased pouring drink from a pitcher, to sustain the souls journeying through the Underworld.

 

She was also known as the “Uraeus on the Head of all the Gods” and  the “Lady of the Flame”.

 DUA TEFNUT!

Grateful to be safe and alive.
Grateful to all the brave souls that stepped forward to fight this fire.
Hotep.
