We had a scare last week when a power line fell and started a forest fire, Fire burned a little over 1000 acres, Forest service started a back fire on the mountain beside us, lucky no structures were lost, It is dryer than a popcorn fart here in southwest VA, I am not even going to use the fireplace till we get some rain, Gary

Thankfully your place was spared! Hoping you and your bride are well.

Have a great Thanksgiving Gary !

Gary, glad all is safe with you. As a former Virginian, who hunted Wythe and Giles Counties, I’m curious what county you’re in if you don’t mind my asking.
