Forest fire

ed will · Aug 8, 2019

Hi all, we've had a forest fire just 750 yards south and east of us. Its the biggest in bc at this time. It is out of control. The forest service says it will take min 28 days to contain it, it's to get it contained. Serious trouble if wind changes. Most smokers going south. Eight bucket helicopters going over house every 8 min. Loading water at Vaseux lake 250 yards from here.. we are in the peak of peaches, about 1500 lbs yesterday. Same today I gues. Need earplugs as choppers only 200 ft high over head. Ed Will oliver BC

Be safe, those things are really unpredictable.

Will the peaches take on a smokey flavor if the wind switches your way?

May the effort to control it be successful, and your crop/and land be spared. Jim
