WASHINGTON, May 31 — After vowing to steer a greater share of antiterrorism money to the highest-risk communities, Department of Homeland Security officials on Wednesday announced 2006 grants that slashed money for New York and Washington 40 percent, while other cities including Omaha and Louisville, Ky., got a surge of new dollars.

"Maybe.... "

Compromise always begins with a maybe ... usually.

Going crazy watching the fires and watching the war.

Got two fires near Tooele, and a huge on near Cove Fort, and it has been smokey for two days in Ogden.

Hubby's waiting to leave California. He'll either be sent home or on to another fire assignment. He hasn't found out for sure, and at this rate, I betting he'll be spending another night in Cali, because they would have to get him home by 10 pm, and they're already close to that limit now. Government regulation for fire assignments: on travel days, you must be at your destination by 10. Had too many people have travel accidents trying to drive home late.

The one by Cove Fort started on Monday, grew to 10,000 acres. Yesterday it got thunderstorm winds and grew another 15,000 I think it was burning north away from Cove Fort. At least part of the fire's on Fishlake NF.

Wow. There haven't been fires around Fish Lake for years!

I'm glad the wind isn't blowing toward Cove Fort. I really like that place. I usually stop there whenever I make the drive up to Utah County.

No fires in a long time might be one reason it's burning so big...

Hi Sis!

Where are we in the countdown?

Is boot camp almost finished?

The enviro-idiots have ensured we leave the fallen wood in our forests to support the 'life of the underbrush' because that's how it would work in life if MAN wasn't around with logic, and other pesky things.

Anyway, the (duh) unexpected consequence is the "kindling" left on the forest floor.

Just add lightning.
