Looks like we're safe (was: Fire Purrs)
This morning the fire picked up again, and burned further east. When I
looked at it at noon it was down at the base of highway 330 - about 3/4 mile from my place. Lots os smoke, lots of ash. Got everything packed up and ready evacuate, then sat down to watch. By 2:00 most of the visible flames had died down. When I looked again 5 minutes ago, no flames are visible, and we've got smoke plumes rising from close to 180 degree expanse of mountain. Looks like we're all going to be fine. But I'm NOT looking forward to rainy season (if we have one this year). Still purring here for the folks close to the other fires. Dan and the Highland gang |

Rain would be lovely right now, but after all these fires, the flooding and mudslides will be horrendous if we do get a lot of rain early next year. Joy |
