All Clear . . Almost

The Carpenter 1 Fire is supposedly 80% contained .
Sources say that it is possible for the final ten percent to burn
until October! That area is extremely remote and we're told it is under control
for the time being. So . .  I received word today that everything is on for
my Saturday gigs at the Mt. Charleston Lodge! This time of year is their
biggest season for tourists to the Spring Mountains area. Camping/ Hiking .
I am looking very forward to resuming my performances there. Grateful.

fire on the mountain. A lightning strike hitting dry desert brush has caused
a Type 1 fire rescue / contain effort with mandatory evacuation for all residents
in the Trout Canyon and Kyle Canyon areas. This area is north and west from
us, although smoke/ash and orange colored skies are visible over the mountains
which are just a few miles west 
Summer heat has been building into the 115 range.
We are thankful for air conditioning.
