Elsewhere in Oregon, the East Antelope Fire doubled in size to 1,000 acres and curled around the southeast slopes of Grizzly Peak so that flames were visible from Ashland, home of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival. The fire was sparked Tuesday by power lines sagging into tree limbs.
Structural firefighting teams were stationed at homes along Dead Indian Memorial Road, but there was no immediate threat to homes, said Oregon Department of Forestry spokeswoman Keren Gillespie. There were no evacuation notices issued, and no estimated date for containing the fire.

Thanks! Are you getting the smoke from this fire where you live?
Archie and AuntB have had smoke problems from it for about two days.
They should drag Andy Kerr and his lesbo Druid Nuns in Ashland out to the fires and tie them to trees around the perimeter of the fire so they can chant "Fire is Good!"
Wonder if any of Andy's Hemp is on fire?

The Antelope fire (closest to us) is now at 1,500 acres and it's breezy and 100+ degrees. It's like having your life flash before your eyes. The Dead Indian is where I spent much of my teen years at a church youth camp. Beautiful area....or it was. Mr. Bush was on TV this morning and said [sic] "WE MUST HAVE A NEW FOREST POLICY!" AMEN!
