Oh, Ed, I had never thought of a brush fire this way before! How sad.
I am tucking this brilliant little piece into my library. hugs, Chris

Where, indeed? It takes so little to make us lose all direction and be stymied... even when to sit still is to surely perish.

This is magnificent, my friend... you write just a few words... but in them lies so many stories... Beautiful!!!
