I hope the Loblolly pine replanting efforts are successful and that a new growth of
Loblolly can be establised. It would be a historic loss to lose that unique growth.
I know that some volunteer groups have been helping with the replanting.

I was unaware of any arrest being made but I don't doubt some may have been
involved in doing nefarious things regarding the fires.

The last time I drove through the parks (Bastrop and Buescher), the loblollies seemed to be coming along well.

I plan to drive over to Zimmerhanzel’s in Smithville this week or next for Barbecue, and will drive through both parks then, and let you know how they are coming along now.
