Hey Tony and all,

Hope things will be ok for you. We've had a close call
with the Quartz fire. Almost had to cancel plans to
attend the Oregon Star Party. Thankfully, the fire
decided to burn towards the south instead of north.
We've got 1600 firefighters camped across the valley
from us.

Those of us in wooded areas need to take Tony
seriously and clear out the undergrowth around our
homes.

Alan
