Texas Wildfires

Texas wildfires are certainly in the news… scary thought that we are headed that way. Dramatic photos from unknown sources show the fires relentless drive to consume everything in it’s path. Graford, Marfa, Possum Kingdom, Strawn, Gorman, Iraan, Stonewall, Scurry, Fisher, and heading towards Dallas/Fort Worth and Austin.

Hope all our friends in Texas are safe and remain safe.

According to the Texas Forest Service, March 2011 was the state's driest March on record, leaving it in extreme drought and fueling recent wildfires that have destroyed hundreds of homes and burned more than one million acres over the past two weeks. High winds have been driving some fires eastward, closer to the densely populated Dallas-Fort Worth area.
