Texas wildfires
I can smell and see smoke from the fire, which is about 40 miles northeast of me. Scares me.

Fires are so scary. I hope no one got hurt with those fires.
Keep on a lookout and check the news every minute. |

I'm fine, the fires are about 30 miles away from me. There are some smaller fires that are closer but far enough away to not cause me any problems. Right now there are no fires north of me so I can't even smell any smoke, I can see smoke plumes but can't actually smell it. We will be in danger until the winds die down but for now we are safe.

One of my techs called me that her kids schools are closed tomorrow. She's just a few miles from the Magnolia fire and is freaking out because her hubby is out of town.

I'm fine, too. Fires are also about 30 miles from us, but we still have smoke. The winds aren't as high today, so the fires are better contained. Gayle, Dripping Springs is having big fires. That is the closest town to our friends Ranch.
Stay safe Sandy. Everything is so crunchy dry, and pine is so easily burned.
