That's good to know!

Walked by the fire station in Old West Austin the other day. Good to see that the fire danger is low.

Lady Bird Lake Firefighting

We saw smoke on Lady Bird Lake yesterday but couldn't figure out what was on fire. It looked like the lake itself. Turns out there were two separate boat fires at a marina near the Hyatt. Our faithful correspondent Jackie had a good view from her apartment and submitted some great pictures. I chose this one to show the firefighters using the Congress Avenue bridge as a perch to fight the fires.

Where There is Smoke

Yesterday around 5:15PM we took this picture from the balcony of our condo. That is not a mountain, nor a cloud. It is smoke from the Batrop County fire.
