This is sure not a pretty site for anyone who lives, knows of someone who lives in or has traveled to Colorado. We now have 4 major fires burning that I know of and we're only half way through the heated month of June.
The houses burning are no trailer trash, easy-to-replace flats. They're multi-million dollar custom homes with some amazing properties and vistas. We're almost used to hearing about mountain fires but who would have thought such a devastating fire would break out like the one in Black Forest between Castle Rock and Colorado Springs?
The south has their tornadoes. The east has its hurricanes. The northeast has its snow (because it just doesn't snow here at all practically anymore) and well, I guess we have to have some piece of the rotten pie. So, we'll take the fires I suppose.
Life in Colorado is great but these Colorado wild fires to seem to be hold us back a bit these days.
