    Hope they get it out before it turns into something big.

    I have a feeling it will be a bad fire season there. With all the new growth the mountains where getting around the IE something or someone. is bound to set it off. I am glad I am not there any more. Having to use my windshield wipers for ash was close enough.

    Wish you the best, and hope it is extinguished soon.
    I am sure you will not be sleeping soundly for the next couple of days.

    They have it contained but not controlled. 15 homes were lost in this one. Oddly enough we have mid-west style thunder storms going on right now with dry lightning. So thats being a problem all in it self.
