"Historic" fire at the Wildlife Refuge near us. The wind came our way yesterday and the smoky air was alarming. Winds gusty and high fire risk, due to dryness. I heard that 11,000 acres burned. It was believed to have been started by a motorist pulling off the road and the exhaust caught the dry grass on fire. I think it is under control this morning. It is called the Rush Lake Fire.
Crazy autumn weather--windy and warm. Chance of rain on Wednesday for us. My flowers are all wind-blown. The only good thing is the pasture is dormant so Billy can get out and wander around.
