Today a fire was built in 463

Unread postby Rich Murray » Wed Mar 13, 2013 12:47 pm

At 10:40 MT today 3/13/13, the first fire in over a decade was built in 463 and pressure is building. There is still work to be done but this is a major giant step putting smiles on a lot of happy faces.
Photos will be posted just as soon as they are available. Stay tuned!
