toward the end of August, and I flew back. Just about everything looked so dry and the heat was unimaginable.
She has told us recently the fires are about 30 miles or so from the campus. All you could think about was rain, when is it going to rain.
K&R..good to link to Red Cross, wish I could do more.

Things have not changed there. The fire is still zero percent contained.
