Wildfires

In Arizona we have always been worried about wildfires. It has always been a part of the hot dry summers we have. But this year we had such a dry winter that there is a little extra concern.

Yesterday, we had a summer storm and lighting. There was a strike in Carr Canyon, not far from our home. The Hot Shots were on it right away and it was exciting to watch them drop slurry and water. I did have a few worries about that we might need to evacuate but the fire was contained so quickly I didn't have it for long.
