On to Nevada

Well, we got cancelled twice yesterday but today finally got an order that stuck. Now we are headed to Winnemucca, Nevada for a severity detail. I'm not sure exactly whats in store for us but it'll be fun to do a little travel on the government's bill. By the time we get back the grass should be good and cured and we should be busy. We are spending the night in Pocatello, ID then finishing the drive tomorrow. The resource order was a little unclear but it sounds like the national office might be strategically pre-positioning us. A lot of the resources in the Southwest and the Great Basin went to California so they will probably use to fill in where needed. Could be pretty fun!

It's hard to get used to hearing someone WANT a fire, but it sounds like an interesting time.

Hope all goes well in Nevada.

We'll keep checking in.

Glad you found this page! It is kind of strange how a "good" fire season can mean two things to two different people. I get so used to living and working around fire that sometimes I forget that everyone doesn't share my comfort level with it. But it sure is fun to me!
