Reposting this story from earlier this week for 3 reasons:
1. Wildfires will continue to ravage the West.
2. I want folks to know what the rural communities of Malden and Pine City are still dealing with.
3. I'm grateful John shared his story with me.

Claudia Carter had one wish when she was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer last year. She wanted to make it to February for one more Black History Month. She made it, and installed a Black History Month exhibit at the Vancouver Community Library for the fourth straight year.
