Hi O

Thanks for the concern. Sadly, the fire jumped a barrier after being about 55% contained, and is now largely out of control. I still think the cabin on south shore is not at much of a risk.

A good friend is up there fighting it, and his messages are not encouraging. Angora Lake is our favorite little lake and hiking area. It is gone for now (nature has a way of bringing it all back).

It is all the result of not allowing homeowners and landowners the right to trim back brush and trees. They are not even allowed to RAKE the needles on their property. That leaves a giant tinderbox under the old growth, so when a fire starts, it burns everything--fast.

tps
