ROADSIDE PARK FIRE
« on: May 08, 2011, 03:50:30 PM »
Seems to be a scorched earth policy going on out that way...  Eat a bowl of refried beans and set the road side park on fire...   :icon_lol:

Yeah, I live in Sunny Glenn area (not proper, the flat area before) and had to evacuate last night. Still smoking in spots on this side, but looks like Paisano is kicking it up this evening.

And out the other window, I have a great view of the glow of the Iron Mountain/Blakemore fire. The Schwartz fire is not yet visible by day.

Then we had a quickie in town because the firefighters just didn't have enough to do.  :willynilly:
