  Subject: [meteorite-list] Fire, My house

  Once again here is some fire information about the Rodeo fire in =
Arizona.=20
  The link below is a CNN article posted today, the photo is the remains =
of my family home in Pinedale. I did an interview with Mattingly =
yesterday, but do not know if it aired on CNN yet.=20
  http://www.cnn.com/2002/US/07/01/mattingly.otsc/index.html

  I grew up from 1985 to 1991 in the town of Pinedale Arizona. Tiny =
town, only about 200 people. A little larger now, but not much. I loved =
it there, and have many fond memories of that house. It was one of the =
first homes to burn in the fire when it overran the town on Thursday =
June 20. I was in Europe with Jim Strope and when I got the news about =
the fire, I was going crazy for the rest of the trip. Many of my friends =
have been burned out. I took my sister Kim out there yesterday and she =
was crying most of the time. It used to be beautiful green forest, =
Ponderosa Pines, the largest stand of this tree in the world, stretching =
from west of Flagstaff into New Mexico. Now in the area that fir burned, =
(Almost the same size as the entire state of Rhode Island), there is =
mostly burned twigs, moonscape we call it, black and white ash. Little =
else remains.=20
  I toured a place called Timberland Acres this morning, I was one of =
the first people in there. It is a large area of mountains and roads =
with homes scattered all about, now looks like a horror movie after a =
Nuclear bomb blast, few trees, mostly rubble piles that used to be =
homes. Large homes.=20
  I knew the area like the back of my hand, now with everything burned, =
I could hardly find my way around.=20
      My sister is fine, scared for a week, but ok, but so much =
destroyed, the road from Show Low to Forest Lakes is 50 miles, ALL of it =
burned, 5 towns in between partly or mostly burned.=20
