Fire Warnings

Last year North Central Washington experienced some very intense and dramatic fires.  It was late in the summer, but many many acres burned.

Last Saturday one of the counties placed burn bans.  This early.  No fireworks, no open flames, no motor vehicles without proper mufflers on dirt roads.....

An ounce of caution is far far better.

Last season the smoke was so bad we didn't go over for several weeks.  Our friends, Cynthia and Russ, hightailed it out of Nahahum Canyon because of the smoke, taking horses and dogs to the "wet side" (as they call it over here).

Be careful this year, folks!  There is still a lot of fuel out there...

Murphy's Day.
