Why can't the forestry department start making fire lanes around some of these large timber tracts. If a fire should start, may be these fire lanes would help. I wonder if the forestry department has mapped our a sound plan should a fire in our area be a problem

Besides respiratory problems, was wondering if anyone else had dry eye problems due to the smokiness...
