There was a series of fires “of suspicious origin” over several months ending a little over a year ago out on the Reservation. Someone was setting these fires. There was some damage to property but for the most part, these fires were put out before any serious damage was done. Then we went a little more than a year with no fires until the 16th. We’ve had a dry spring and a fire would spread quickly, which this one did. Several fire departments were needed to get the blaze under control and put out. Maybe this fire isn’t related to those a year or so ago … but it seems a bit “suspicious” in my mind!

This was our usual busy Friday starting with a 3:30 a.m. alarm and our shift at the Idaho Falls Temple. The day before I got a phone call from a company here in town with an invitation to come in for an interview. They’re looking for some programming help on a project for a new client. I’m one of several people being interviewed for the position. It was an interesting interview and I enjoyed getting to know a little about the company and their business. While I would very much enjoy doing some work for them, I’m pretty sure they’ll go a different direction.

The cold is not going away. In fact, it feels like it’s getting worse.

TTFN!
