This has been a very dry summer and fall and the fires around Utah have been evidence of that. One afternoon when I came over Trappers to see smoke on the north side of the valley. It was just what I was afraid of...a fire in Eden/Liberty. They had several crews on it as quickly as possible but with the wind the mountainous terrain it was difficult to fight. They called in the helicopters and airplanes to drop water they would first collect from Pineview. We sat on the front porch with the girls watching them pull the water out of the lake it was pretty amazing to watch. Luckily they were able to get it under control pretty quickly and without many people or structures hurt or damaged. We're so grateful it wasn't worse.
