Anne-Lise, and in my city of Ottawa the sky is white with smoke, and the scent of burning, blessings and hugs ~

Hello Constance, it is sad that these wild fires still are burning. there shouold be a way of some sort to put them out for good. many people are losing their homes. It is so sad. Love & Friendship, Darlene/
