And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms.

The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

The National Weather Service released this satellite image of the smoke plume from the fire on Thursday

The pictures you have been showing of that fire are amazing.
ReplyDeleteThe damn thing is burning virtually in my backyard ( though no actual threat to me - I'm down in the flats).
DeleteWe had a few days where the smoke from the fires up in BC actually affected us here in the Northeast

ReplyDeleteThe fire concerning.
I'm headed back to NW Nevada in a week. Please have the fire out and the smoke cleared by then. Thank you.
DeleteI'll be working on that for you. ;-)
