El Gato.....hope you and those grands (and their parents) are all in safe areas.

Prayers for all of you in Texas.

We're all fine Kathy, thanks for your prayers. Texas needs them right now. I think I'll go out and check the local situation, I think I smell smoke

....

Yep, I can now see the smoke plume from the Ft. Hood range fire. it's not quite directly overhead, but close. Definitely more smoky smelling than earlier today. Wind is not high, but a good breeze.

Haven't heard directly from the daughters, but both are in good spots, fires to the east and fires to the west, but the wind is pretty much due north, and so they should be OK. If they needed to bug out, they'd probably call to come up here. :)

This photo was taken a little north of my house, from one of the Ft. Hood housing areas.

It looks pretty much the same from my front yard.
