Thanks for the heads up ! I talked to Leonard awhile ago and he thought that nobody was planning on going to D.C. this year! I'm looking at replacing my left knee now!

You would think that there wasn't much left to burn since the slashing of most of the trees and then the Squirrel Creek fire a few years back! Like Hoser said, " It would make you sick to see all the death up there!" and now this!

The fires don't surprise me as the whole place is a tinderbox after all of the beetle kill in the area.

Nice hearing from you Barney! What have you been up to? Yep going back to D.C. would be nice even if all I could do is sit around the campfire and tell some fibs! :D
