Wild Fire

Every year during the dry season here there are many wild fires.  Yesterday one started up on the mountain behind our house and eventually worked it's way down the mountain and into the fields around the house.  We didn't have to worry as there was no tall grass or trees near our house, but a lot of the pasture was burned.  A week or two ago another fire burnt through a farm a couple of miles from our place and that farmer lost most of his peach orchard, several cows and  a lot of fences.  Needless to say there a lot of smoke in the air this time of year.
