Only part of it is lack of fuel funds. The bigger part is the fact that we are having a California/Colorado ire season in SouthEast Texas. Aerial fireworks sales have been anned. But we live within spitting distance of the Louisiana state ine and I'm just not real comfortable with the idea of being away hile rednecks with fireworks run loose in the tinderbox around my ouse. There was a 50 or 60 acre burn less than 10 miles from my house last eekend. Over the past 3 months we have lost several thousand acres ithin 100 mile radius of where I live. They had to close a major ighway about 15 miles away when the flames got next to it and went ver 100 feet into the air. Weather guessers are calling for decent rain next week. So far this ear "decent rain" has only been 10 minute knock-shit-down hard hunderstorms or 3 or 4 hours of "drizzle-so-slow-you-can-smoke-outside" rap that just doesn't count. We need at least a full day or two of who-left-the-shower-running" rain. Medium drops coming down hard nough to get stuff wet but not so hard you can see them bouncing back ff the ground 6". Somebody needs to put a big ass overflow pipe due south from South akota down into the lakes that make up the Sabine/Neches river basin ystem. Send some of that stuff a little further west to help us out nd keep Iowa, Nebraska, and Missouri a bit less wet. G2
