Mountain fire~Friday's Fences~071913

I took this photo on Tuesday.  By the next day, the road up to the mountains was closed.  Apparently it is now open again.  The fire has now crested the mountains and it is working its way down into the Palm Springs Indian canyons.  Over 22,000 acres have burned and a monsoon is heading toward the valley.  Friday's Fences for July 19, 2013.  To visit Friday's Fences, please go to:   http://lifeaccordingtojanandjer.blogspot.com/

    Such a shame so much of nature being destroyed. There is not a fence that can stop fires.

    Those fires are so dangerous. Last year we had one in Utah that just ran right up the mountain.

    That's a great photo. I hate hearing about these wild fires. They have such tragic results for man and nature.

    I enlarged your photo. It's a good one. Did the fire make it into the Indian Canyons?
