Hopefully it'll be rained out by Friday

Or hope wind switches directions and burns back on itself. I've got a slight north breeze in Llano county.

Many out-of-area firemen are currently in Junction. Some of them were on the fire out a Telegraph and got that one under control, maybe out.

That's the Leggett brother's place. They are from Eldorado but all live in Wall now. Good dudes. 3 of the 4 brothers are Aggies. Talked to the youngest one about it today. He said they didn't lose any structures and no livestock lost either.
