Good Morning, my friends. Got one fire east of Tucson at 385,000 acres, with no containment.@davidf42….. I posted an explanation of “fire containment” abou half-way or so down the list.

Morning, Slim. Just you & me so far. Join me in the hot tub?

I’d love to, JanCin. I hope your husband is there. I don’t want to get in troube. But yes, I’d love to join you in the hot tub!

Ah, the relaxing joys of hot water, good company and a nice glass of wine (or the beverage of your choice).

The new avatar photo was taken in Glacier Bay last summer by my brother Rick.

I’m not much of a wine person. My favorites are both Mogan-David Concord grape or Blackberry kosher wind. Used to keep a bottle in camp for bedtime..Getting late. Got to rise early so……. Good night, and say hi to everybody for me.

Morning Bonds.

Slim, thanks for that explanation. Driving through the area I saw where the bulldozers had been hard at work. Before it was contained, the fire had actually jumped an 8 lane divided highway, so I can see what a challenge this “Containment” activity really is.

Here’s the link to Today’s Annie Comic along with Chapter 15 of Little Orphan Annie and Sandy.

Morning everbody.

Got to be rolling in a couple hours, so I’ll be breaf.

I hope there will free wireless access at the college where we’er meeting.

All you folks keep safe, and I’ll try to keep between the ditches.

Later\\//_

GOOD MORNING ALL,

No hot tub here, it’s 90 already, by this PM I’ll probably walk over to the lake (Ontario) and put my toesies in :-)

Good Morning, Everyone!Wow, how I miss our Spa!!!! We left it when we sold our house in CA. Nothing better than reclining and watching the stars and satellites go by! We get a much clearer sky up here, but it doesn’t get dark enough in the summer to see anything until about 11 p.m.! So, we change our sleeping habits around.

Good afternoon all…

Hi everybody.

I’m sitting in my dorm room here at Gordon College, in Wenham, Mass. I found wireless, so I’ll be here in the morning as usual.

Did you notice, I’ve got my little buddy back up in the corner.

Rita, that’s one of the reasons we bought a SofTub. It’s portable and will go to the new house in Vegas as soon as we close escrow (if they accept our offer).

Saw a clip on the news earlier from the big fire NE of Tucson. Knowing what it was burning, I could tell some of the flames were a hundred feet high, at least.Also, the fire is as big as the island of Oahu. Almost 400,000 acres. Second largest in state history. Still zero containment!
