COLFAX FIRE
Maybe you've seen on TV all the fires in Washington State. The largest fire in the US is in the Dayton, WA area, which is about 100 miles away. Much closer, however, is the Colfax, WA fire, which is about twelve miles away. Fortunately, the winds blew the Colfax fire away from the R J Ranch.

Here are a couple of pictures of the Colfax fire that Jacquie and I took this morning from the helicopter. The fire is about 100% contained.
