Good morning.

I hope all of your are okay. I guess it got rather smokey from Ashland to Medford and over to where Archie lives.

Please update this thread with what did happen and is happening.

Blackie what is the deal with that hemlock fire? Is it centered in some Green Jihadist Druid Cathedral and they can't fight it? Or is that area so rugged they can't fight it? Hard to believe any area that close to where you live is that rugged.

Good Morning G'Pa! Hope you find yourself feeling fine this morning.

I don't really know the terrain is like around Westfir...

I think Westfir is near Oakridge ??

Oakridge is on highway 58, east of Eugene...

This is the view of the north end of the Florence/Biscuit fire near Galice/Agness just after noon before it starts to really burn from the heat of the day helping it along.

It would take 3-4 photos with my camera to get the fires entire view from here.

The entire horizon is burning. This view is approx 30-35 miles from Grants Pass.

view from Grants Pass just after noon

The same view 4 hours later. This is not a sunset enhanced photo, just a hot fire.

The wind has been blowing the smoke away from us yesterday and today, a welcome break.
