Return to home page. Tuesday, July 7, 2009. Fire, Fact and Fascination. Ideas that enter the mind under fire remain there securely and forever. Leon Trotsky. Education is the key to getting children and adults fired up to learn the facts, fun and fascination of fire. Don’t let your dreams go up in smoke-practice fire safety. Author unknown. How is it that one careless match can start a forest fire, but it takes a whole box to start a campfire? Of course, I would use the matchstick forest experiment to de...

Return to home page. Tuesday, July 7, 2009. I definitely realized how people have impacted the current health of the forests with fire suppression over the last one hundred years. Our forests are over-crowded. We have been going through a long drought, too. As a result, we are having insect problems. I think we all gained an appreciation for what fire fighters go through. They have a very physically and mentally demanding job and deserve the utmost respect appreciation. I am truly grateful! The goal of t...

Some other thoughts worth noting:. What a treat to visit Mesa Verde! What impressed me were the hours that the teams spend clearing th...

Return to home page. Tuesday, July 7, 2009. Kent Grant helped with background information that we built on the rest of the week. The information he provided about forest health has been useful. I have looked up Community Wildfire Protection Plans for the areas of Larimer County that I work with.

The Lemon Reservoir visit with John taught the most of any...
