Porpoise is next,but lives in water. bert


They caught an alligator today in a Washington State lake! Global
warming in action? Gators migrating north?

It was 94F today with a hot dry wind. A fire has started on a big
island in the Columbia River and is being fanned by the hot wind. The
piles of sawdust from an old mill are burning and smoldering. Firemen
think it started from spontaneous combustion! Such a fire is hard to
put out. It can be similar to a peat bog fire that can burn
underground. Should the fire spread to the dry grass and trees, it
could easily jump the narrow channel to the mainland and come right up
over the wooded ridge to where I am at! nightbat was warning me about
the perils of rising waters. I am more worried at the moment about
the perils of sweeping fires!
