First Responders: fire on Otty Lake




And locally, people set off fireworks on an island in the nearby lake. I counted 5 emergency vehicles go by. Forest fires are to be feared here. Our firefighters are volunteers.
From Facebook:






Fires cross the continent...



2 volunteer firefighters, 6+ police cars and 2 fire trucks.

Fireworks are really unnecessary these days, yet so many people insist on them.
Wow, that could have been really quite bad!
Sad result with the plane. :(

It has been very dry. The river is low. Water usage is in the red here.
