forest fire

We had some excitement this past week. A forest fire started on Thursday. There were extremely rough winds that day. We were coming home from a PTO program late at night, and we could see a ridge on the one of the mountains - glowing orange. The next evening our neighbor called us and told us the fire was about 3/4 miles away from our road - yikes! We weren't even sure where the fire was when we saw it - it is hard to tell driving on the curvy roads and it being high up. Luckily, the wind had died down, and it rained Sunday morning - so we believe all is well now.
