Fire on the mountain

Here are a selection of photos I took Sunday, August 12 of helicopters and happenings at the mouth of Farmington Canyon as efforts progressed to fight that blaze roughly 24 hours after it ignited. Video of the live update on KSL can be found on their web site. Aircraft are communicating with each other and ground crews on 112.15 (if you have a VHF airband scanner, it's cool to hear what they're up to.)

Delightful Dish

How could you not give this meal an award? My family entered this recipie in a dutch oven cooking competition over the weekend and these novices performed briliantly. Unfortunately the cheese and sausage wrapped in beef did not bring home the bacon, but that is a small issue to the beneficiaries of the hard work put into this delicious dish.
