I'm going to post this out on Facebook knowing there is a lot of local folks reading this too. Please folks don't be lighting fireworks this 4th July. I know its a US tradition to do. With the extremely high temperatures we are having, tall grasses, and explosive fire potential it just not a good idea. So please pass this along to your friends and families to tell them not to be lighting fireworks this summer the fire danger it just too great this year.

 

I know some of you are very wet yet but there are some of that are extremely dry. Please folks be safe.

Another item about fireworks is there's too many smoke plums coming out of an area from everyone doing it. In other words, it's too difficult to tell weather there is a real fire emergency, someone may be in trouble.

Around me it is tannerite versus beaver dams on a regular basis. Worst part is it happens about 500 feet from my house, neighbor has a house next to a creek in the middle of a poplar tree grove, beavers dam up the creek and that in return floods his basement so it is a constant battle and my wife is constantly re-leveling her pictures on the wall.

wettest year we have had in many many years here haha.

 

I do like tannerite.
