We had a forest fire 5 years ago in East Texas. I live on a small cattle ranch. The fire burned up to our slightly over grazed pasture. We were a natural fire line. Loggers and fire fighters had the fire out quickly by plowing fire lanes with v blade dozers and lots of planes dumping water.
Our biggest industry is wood. We grow trees and manage forests. In 1981 I worked for a major wood products company. Their projections had East Texas running out of logs by 1986. We have two new plants and lots of timber in 2022.
