And so begins the 2009 fire season


With snow. Actually, we got started down in the Ozarks with a month of prescribed fire and a few small wildfires. Now we are back in Custer, with snow on the ground, a broke-down truck, and no clue as to where we are heading next.

The Ozarks were fun. I guess it is a crazy tourist area in the summer, but it was quiet while we were there. Very rednecky, reminds me a lot of the country where I grew up. Putting in fire line with a leaf blower was strange, but it definitely lets your mind wander more than with a chainsaw.

I'll get some pics on here soon, but for now, here is the crew. Yabba-dabba-do indeed.

I hadn't checked in with your blog in a long time. Sounds like the last year has been pretty amazing. Hope all is going well this summer. It is hard to believe it's been two years since we visited, but now we too are headed back to the states. Our two years flew by and dragged by. But through it all we thought back to the advice we received early on from Noah and Karinne. Thanks again.
Kevin & April
