My personal opinion is to do like the native Americans did. Small fires and controlled burning would make a much healthier and safer forest

They long ago proved that the uncontrolled under growth is a hazard in California but they continue to ........

Looks like Montana's the major source for your neck of the semi high desert/plains. Isn't that area above 4000'? ..... Unless your close to the 2 fires either in or on the border of your county? (I zoomed in a bit for the 2nd shot, admittedly not far enough now that I think of it.)




This app is so kewl. I wish this stuff was around 20 years ago. (Smirks) I might of changed degree plans.....

This weather is SO crazy!

Just when I thought we had hit our last heat-wave (about a week ago) we're hit with more 100 deg. weather!?!?

I keep thinking I can put away the fans, etc., until next season.

I swear, I don't remember heat waves like this in late September ever before.
