JRPJR Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 I have. It's a pretty large fire. I see lots of smoke but no flames. The wind is starting to pick up so we will have to see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

giltner68 Posted April 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 Ah, I can't see it from the casa, but noticed when I was up at SIMAPA - twice, to get them to come over and look at the piddly stream of water emanating from my hose and say "yeah, it does that" and they drove away?

The wind is starting to pick up so we will have to see what happens. You can see the red flames at night from West Ajijic. We had another one several years ago just like it.

Hernan Santiago Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 Mt Garcia in flames is not unusual at this time of year. In fact, anything in flames is not unusual for this time of year. My neighbor's house is blocking my view. Sure hope somebody posts photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuckieHoomever Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 Someone asked for photos. How 'bout photos with a poem? My sweetie (in San Juan Cosala) is participating in National Poetry Writing Month - NaPoWriMo, and she wrote today's poem while sitting in Maria Bonita restaurant, looking at the smoke rising from Mt Garcia. She posted the poem, with photos, in her new blog, HERE. I hope y'all enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

satnrose Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 Did anyone else wake up this morning to find a black bottom of dust in their pool ? I've never seen this before and I'm wondering if it was a result of the fire. I live fairly close to the lake in Ajijic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floradude Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 I have a picture that I took yesterday afternoon across the lake but I do not know how to attach it here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cedros Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 A large area is burning above the Raquet Club. Fire department pickups have been checking on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ajijicis4me Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 A large area is burning above the Raquet Club. Fire department pickups have been checking on it. It's common for fires to burn in the mountains this time of year. Hope you don't lose much of the forest there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gretchen1 Posted April 19, 2013 Report Share Posted April 19, 2013 At the beginning of the week a big fire engulfed the mountain hanging over Ixtlahuacan de los Membrillos... coming down to touch the edges of ranches on the south side of town.
