Prayers out to you, C. I've been watching the Leadville fire carefully as its closest to me. Keep us informed so we know you are safe.

I've been watching the Leadville fire too, Jen. My son is up in Cripple Creek and the primary route to leave has been shut down. I did a Google search to map a route for him to Canyon City. So Jean, while you're watching the Leadville fire, will you please also keep an eye on Cripple Creek? I'd sure appreciate it. c On 6/26/2012 8:37 PM, Jen Baldwin wrote: > Prayers out to you, C.
