Fire and Rain

With apologies to James Taylor, there was both some fire and some rain in the Ranch in the last couple of days. The Mister saw the story (and the helicopter) on the news, so he drove over to Higley Estates yesterday and snapped this picture of the aftermath of the fire:


He explains:

I am attaching a picture from my phone. Not very good, but you can see the burned area around the garage window, and what is left of a corvette in the driveway. The front is burned off. I don’t know if it was in the garage or not. I suspect so, and then it got rolled/pulled out.

Our sympathies to the residents of that house; I hope the insurance reimbursement will be swift.

As for the rain, according to the rain gauge, at 6:50 this morning it was a pleasant 74 degrees with 79% relative humidity and we had gotten .02 inches of rain. Here is the view from our front porch:
