I got an e-mail from a lady the other day who'd done a random Google search for "Lamppost Tattoo" and found my post from the day when I got my The Lion The Witch And The Wardrobe tattoo. She got a real kick out of that and sent me a picture of her own Narnia tattoo, which is on her arm and features the same lamppost that I have on my leg. I'm glad to see that there is at least one other person out there with a Narnia inspired tattoo ... here's hoping that this is the beginning of a trend!

Also, I mentioned the wildfire in my backyard yesterday. Not much news today, except that the fire is thought to be "partially contained" ...

Firefighters continue to battle a wildfire that has burned about 120 acres on Waits Mountain in Alleghany County, an official with the National Forest Service said Tuesday.

Firefighters have contained about 10 percent of blaze, but officials estimate more than 400 acres could be at risk, forest service spokeswoman Barb Stewart said.

Nearby homes and Alleghany Regional Hospital, which is about a mile and a half from the fire, are not in danger because the fire is spreading away from that area, a news release from the forest service said.

Still hoping for the best. Firefighters seem to still be optimistic, for the most part and everyone is hoping for the best.
