The wild fire just East of us continues to grow. But we are blessed with a lot of help to keep us safe. These pictures from Monday are of water bombers taking up water from Otter Lake.

Bob Stern writes “Here are some photos I took this evening at Otter Lake in Tulameen of the Conair Single Engine Air Tankers (SEAT) picking up water to fight the fire in Princeton. They flew about 10 loops of 12 minutes each, and there were six aircraft.”
