Thursday's Thoughts, Tonto and The Lone Ranger



It's fire season and the sound of sirens always has me skimming
 the horizon for smoke.


Tuesday I could smell it.  It was that close, less then a mile and 
could see the smoke from the front porch.


But in no time at all, Tonto and The Lone Ranger appeared  in the
 sky to save the day.


That's what I call the CDF (California Department of Forestry )
Spotter Plane and the Borate Bombers and very 
"Thankful" to have  them.

I have been pleasantly surprised that we haven't had skies full of smoke here this summer; last year there was plenty of smoke. I think most of the fires were too far north of here to affect us.
