Well, at least Glenwood and the Blue Front Saloon appear to be safe for the time being.

But they're evacuating Mogollon...

First time I was in that saloon would be in the early 50’s. I hate to see this as that is beautiful and wild country. I have relatives all long 180 from Silver City North to Alma and Reserve.

If you look at this map:

Our property is about 60 miles from Reserve.

Yes I remember from a decade back that I had driven fairly near it when I was hitting the VLA and then on to Alpine in AZ — I just couldn’t remember if you still had it.

This is entirely too damn close for comfort. You both are in our prayers.

My youngest, the one that finished his six in the Signal Corps in early 2010 went out to your area for a wedding party for a buddy a Wegotcha last fall.

He has now announced that he is getting married next year. He is up is southern Michigan doing utility geo-mapping and field locates.

My wife and I are now up to eight grandkids — it is a full time job just getting around to see them all with work still very hectic. Finally going after some more work in the southwest — shooting at Davis Monthan, Cannon, Luke, Carson and Buckley. My wife was convinced we’d win one at Minot but luckly we didn’t.
