Nederland fire

A big forest fire is going on not far from the Shays. It is just outside Nederland, where Ellen and I visited a couple of weeks ago. At least three homes have been destroyed so far, and over a thousand people evacuated. It covers almost 400 acres. It is still not under control. It has been hot and windy. Two campers who left their campfire (which is illegal) without properly dousing it have been arrested.
