Tal-wi-wi (John): After talking with Emery tonight I felt a lot more at ease and actually may be able to sleep tonight. Yesterday there was a spot fire to the southeast of the subdivision and another one in that vicinity this morning. The one this morning required a water drop from a helicopter. A helitanker ignited a back burn above the gravel road to the east of the subdivision. Then the helitanker dropped fourteen loads of retardant just below the gravel road and one load of water. Emery felt that this was a good step in protecting our subdivision from the slow backing fire. Three engine crews, one hot shot crew and a dozer are stationed tonight on the gravel road. Once again things look good in Tal-Wi-Wi, and we are well protected.
Spanish Trail (Allen): Wind has it a bit flared up so far today. Not real worried, the fire lines have hardly been challenged at all the last two days. Just goin to be smokey as hell later
