If you are into plant ecology you can tell that there was a fire, but most people just see vegetation.<br /><br />Now we have three fires west of about four miles. These were lightning starts. Smoky today and if we get high winds from the west that fire can run towards the house. I thought it was going to be a mild fire season due to the late spring. So much for my predictive ability.Vladimir Steblinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17401893012975033107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8596058140020795093.post-18797466155916900542010-07-26T07:29:14.146-07:002010-07-26T07:29:14.146-07:00Yes, I'm sure the media can be as ferocious as...Yes, I'm sure the media can be as ferocious as any forest fire.

That, you may see for decades.Doughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15974453598992131798noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8596058140020795093.post-4812730700471736172010-07-25T19:28:17.676-07:002010-07-25T19:28:17.676-07:00Thanks Dugg.

Some risks are not worth the reward! <br /><br />I just wish those in the 20's would have the same perspective.Vladimir Steblinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17401893012975033107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8596058140020795093.post-687619335947293162010-07-12T20:37:41.381-07:002010-07-12T20:37:41.381-07:00Stay safe!Stay safe!Doughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15974453598992131798noreply@blogger.com
