The fires

Our youngest is out working the Whetstone fire which was caused
by lightening and as of the 26th of July covers 2,104 acres.
The smaller Myers fire is also burning about 1,082 acres as we
speak.

Ten days ago the Whetstone fire was at 371 acres and the Myers
fire at 75 acres. Watch your 6 Kenny, things can escalate
quickly. We know you like what your doing but ask to remember
that while certifications are nice, in a tight spot a gut feeling
can save your bacon.

At least these fires were caused by the weather. We’ll keep
updated on this end and thanks for the call Kenny. A short call
is better than none. To all those fighting fires, be careful
and know you are in our thoughts.

This is short but we just wanted to get the news out there.
Enjoy our thursday. Now I need more coffee and something to eat.
Comments are always welcome.

    Wishing him all the best in this new endeavor and keeping him and all the rest of the crew in my thoughts and prayers. That’s excellent advice you’ve given him and I hope he heeds it.
