It isn't just some far away part of Mexico that is burning and on fire.

Tonight right outside where I live a fire got started on the mountain and spread like crazy... I thought I would have to leave. Got the cat in his cage and everything ready to go just in case but the firefighters and local people got it under control. It is especially difficult at night because you don't have the visibility and no helicopter was up with a bucket. The word out on the street is the fire was deliberately set. IMHO some psycho with matches or a lighter or some paid addict. Either way....the little chapel up on the mountain is toast as it some other structures. We are praying here for rain. The "rain birds are singing". But the rain is probably another month away yet. This fire business isn't funny. Everything is so so dry and crispy.
