With all of the forest fires currently raging it made me curious as to how many of you have been close to one or or ever affected by one. What's your personal story?
The video I posted was from a couple of years ago in my area and was taken about a block from my work. The Columbia River is about a mile wide at this point to give you an idea of scale. It was horrific and saddening to watch the beautiful forest I live in burn for days on end.
Have a great weekend if you can!

Part of the reason that fires are out of control is because climate activists don like forest clearing Which (I think it’s called forest clearing) Is the practice of going through forests and clearing the dead plants Sometimes this also includes burning tall and flammable grasses but it will grow back quick. The controlled burning also creates fertilizer for new plants so I honestly don’t know why the practice was stopped
