Fences, Forest Fire, and a Blog Note.

Today I drove into Page County. From there I could see smoke from a forest fire on Massanutten Mountain. It is called the Kennedy Peak Fire and covers about 700 acres.  Firefighters are working to contain the fire.

Several roads and trails are closed. The Page Valley Overlook is closed. Here is a view from the overlook last month, plus a zoomed-in look at a home below it.

On the trip where I took the overlook pictures, I also stopped to capture this scene in the valley below.

On a different subject, I finally managed to change the email address that my comments go out from. My AOL address would often get refused by recipients' servers because AOL addresses sent via Blogger are flagged as not authentic. Never mind that I have had the address for over 20 years; it was bounced and the other bloggers did not get an email notice of my comments. The comments posted, however, so folks who scan all their comments would see them.

This has been an issue for four years and I tried to change my email address in my blog settings back when I first read about it. The field that I changed did not transfer the info to the "From" field, so I shrugged it off as unimportant. Recently someone mentioned it so I made another try. I found a video showing where to change it (hidden place!), so this time I was successful. (Thank you, YouTube!)

Credit for the picture of me goes to my husband, who took it at Capon Springs in October.
