I just heard from a friend who has lots of family in San Ignacio, and she said the fire was in the palms and is under control now, thank goodness!

The SAME boiling water that softens the potato hardens the egg. It's about what you are made of NOT the circumstance.

Fires are quite common there.
I heard the fire was out!
I was there for my birthday one year and there was a fire
Some people claimed that it was the candles on my cake.

It is out, but they are hoping the winds do not come up again.

I wonder if the new place La Huerta was affected...looks like it's near there from the photo. No way in hell I would ever have a place in a palm grove
as beautiful as they are...fire scares the crap out of me.
