all that water - yeah I'm grinning

This really stretched my zoom capabilities but I laughed at how much it looked like Hugo is grinning away.
Thank you for the awesome messages of concern and support the past few months. We are down to only 84 fires in the state, so it is slowly resolving to some degree.

Oh that face!!! I could just snuggle up to him!

Only 84 fires! Goodness me, that is still a lot of fire to deal with. I am so happy you had wonderful downpours to try and normalise the situation. And yes Hugo sure does look happy and contented

[Joanne Diochon]

Hugo looks so contented and happy, glad the rain is helping dampen the fires but 84 is still a lot to cope with
