The wild fires here in New Mexico are getting too close for comfort here in Santa Fe, one national park is on fire, now Los Alamos Lab is in danger, the homes too.
Cheers..Joe

Abe..
Right now the smoke is so bad from those fires you can't see the mountains, I just hope they try to contain both fires before it reaches town, Los Alamos is less than an hour from here, I've read they already closed the lab and I believe many will have to evacuate their homes, it's a horrible situation when fires spreads through thousands of acres...
Cheers..Joe |

| From the news, my concern is about the nuclear plants. In NM it is fire and in Nebraska water that threatens the nuclear facilities. I hope it doesn't take a disaster before they shut them down. |

| Before man there were floods and fires and natural disasters. We just got in the way.
I am so sorry for the losses from those fires. I hope, Joe, that you can protect your lungs (when we have fires in the Everglades I sometimes wear a mask). |
