Everyone is safe and sound, but it is very sad to see the place that has been my job and part-time home for these last couple years go up in flames. I'm lucky in that, as a nomad, I am used to being able to drive away in my home-on-wheels quickly and I was able to get 99% of my belongings out with me when I evacuated. Many of the staff here had to leave everything behind.
This was to be my last week here, but this certainly isn't how I was anticipating it to go down. The scale of destruction hasn't been fully realized yet. I know in time, the North Rim will rebuild and I consider myself privileged to have been a part of the small team that got to live at and take care of this historic place.
I ask that you keep those affected by these devastating fires in your thoughts and prayers.
