	Here's that plane again. I was supprised that my digital camera actually stopped the props (hard to see in this image, but very clear in the 1600x1200 format that I took them in).

	I saw this stuffed animal sitting on a branch half way up the hill and wrote this haiku: Poor little reindeer Abandoned in the forrest You will burn nicely
	We finally found the fire, and I climbed down the side of a ravine to get these images. I made sure the wind was blowing any direction but toward me.
	My wife started freaking out a bit above me, as I was a little close to the fire. These images were taken with a telephoto lens (I'm not a total idiot... well, perhaps I am).
	Here's a view without the zoom (to give you an idea of how far away the fire was). It's too damn close, and I, my friends, am a complete idiot.
