No rain in months, highs of over 100F for over 80 days. It's been brutal. Today we got a cold front. Great, huh? Cool things off a bit? No: it brought wind with it, wind that combined with the high heat and humidity and lack of rain made the perfect fire conditions. Wildfires broke out all around Austin in Bastrop, Pflugerville, Cedar Park, the Steiner Ranch subdivision, Spicewood, and even one in the small town I live in. (It was small and easily contained, no longer a threat.) The fire in Bastrop is by far the worst. Three of my friends live in Bastrop and they had five minutes to grab what they could and flee. The fire was visible in the trees from the front porch of one of their houses. Most likely their homes are gone. They have most likely lost everything.<br /><br />There were so many good times in Bastrop for so many years. I have such fond memories of hanging out in the quiet peace of the woods, surrounded by huge, ancient pine trees. Today they burned. <br /><br />My friends are safe. Houses can be replaced. But, by the gods, this just sucks.<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=slippery_stone&ditemid=341835" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://slippery-stone.dreamwidth.org/341835.html bastrop fire texas fire 2011 public 0 https://slippery-stone.dreamwidth.org/341700.html Thu, 02 Jun 2011 03:27:14 GMT https://slippery-stone.dreamwidth.org/341700.html Tomorrow the man of the house goes in to get two dental implants put in his jaw. Back when he had part of his jaw removed two years ago due to the ameloblastoma, he had two teeth removed as well. Now they're pretty sure that he has enough jaw to put implants in, so in they go.<br /><br />Wish him luck, and me as well, as I'll be here with him for the rest of the week. Off to go check the broccoli cheddar soup...<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=slippery_stone&ditemid=341700" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://slippery-stone.dreamwidth.org/341700.html tired public 3 https://slippery-stone.dreamwidth.org/1571.html Sat, 09 Apr 2011 00:04:55 GMT https://slippery-stone.dreamwidth.org/1571.html ...just moving the furniture around. :)<br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=slippery_stone&ditemid=1571" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments https://slippery-stone.dreamwidth.org/1571.html Twilight- Adam K & Soha (Deadmau5 remix) tired public 1 https://slippery-stone.dreamwidth.org/1378.html Fri, 08 Apr 2011 16:41:22 GMT https://slippery-stone.dreamwidth.org/1378.html Let's see.
