Fire burns through trees on the Hewlett wildfire in the Poudre Canyon northwest of Fort Collins, Colo., on Thursday, May 17, 2012. More than 50 homes were evacuated on Thursday. The fire has grown from 1.5 square miles to 8 square miles in the last day as erratic wind gusts of up to 50 mph moved into the area fueled by thunderstorms that didn’t produce rain.

That's a shame. I guess that wildfires were a part of mother nature's clean up process before we moved in.

Wow! It looks like you are awfully close to this forest fire. Sure hope they are able to contain and control and extinguish this fire quickly and I hope no one has been injured.

This is actually the normal start time for wildfire season, for those who aren't aware, please be mindful of ignition sources and dry fuelwood around your house and yard, and say a prayer for, or at least think about, the Firefighters who are out risking their lives every year in the US and around the world, they are some good, brave people, who work very hard in a nasty environment. May God Bless 'em all!
