All quiet at our place today!
It is very smoky and the fire is still growing, but the fire crews remain
pleased with how the fire burned itself out yesterday at the edge of their
fire break. There are no plans now for a controlled burn on our place, but
they are prepared to do one if the fire approaches up the hillside to our
west.
I have put up some new fire maps and pictures on the web:

The map shows how the fire has grown considerably in the last day and a
half, and it was very sad to see another neighbor's property blackened with
fire. Both our western and northern neighbors have now suffered significant
burning from this fire, and our heart goes out to them.
Near us, the fire has also repeatedly threatened the Orr Hot Springs resort
and Greenfield Ranch.
Nevertheless, the word for the morning from the fire crew is: No news is
good news.
