The loss of lives in 2017 was really incredible. In the western US, this was one of the few times that the wildland fires moved into towns -- cities, really. A hospital, a big hotel, a shopping center, and whole suburban neighborhoods burned. The fire fighters were not prepared for that kind of event. And burning ashes were sweeping miles and miles away to start new fires. I am hoping that 2018 is a quiet year, for everyone! More rain!
