Took the grandkids out to Walnut Canyon while their parents and others in our family reunion enjoyed the ziplines and adventure course at Flagstaff Extreme.

We tried to enjoy ourselves, despite the billowing Pipeline and Haywire fires burning in the background. The wind was fierce in Walnut Canyon, so I can only imagine how crazy it was on the Peaks. :-(

In my photoset, I include a pic I took on my run earlier that morning from MacMillan Mesa, in which the fire seemed to have calmed down overnight from Sunday to Monday. But when the wind picked up an hour or so later, all heck broke loose. A couple of photos are from the Sams Club parking lot as we headed over to Walnut Canyon. The high billowing curls of smoke were what met us as we drove back into town.
