673:
Top of the morning to you sir, I hope it's a bit less smoky in your part of the world and you're well.
We're good so far, but the wind is the wrong direction this morning and I can't say I appreciate that too, too much.
Last number we got was that it was 500 hectares last night, but when we went for a drive at 6:00 we really couldn't see anything as the smoke was just hanging into the mountains.
Way back in the day we hunted sheep up where it's burning and it's really exceptionally tough country. There's no logging roads anywhere near there that I'm aware of other than a ranch trail heading up into the canyon.
So far it's been headed more or less to the east which is uninhabited.
It can't go too far north before hitting what burned last summer, so there is that I suppose.
If it comes south we'll have some fun perhaps, but as always we'll have to wait and see.
I'm not sure if they're still logging here or not, sorry.
All the best.
Dwayne
Edit to add;
Just heard on the news it's at least 5 square kilometers now.
As a rough guess, it's about 3 kilometers from our place at present.
There's a bunch of the neighbors on either evacuation notice or alert. We're just outside of that so far.
