Another fire in Bastrop

[Patton]

Flying back to San Antonio yesterday afternoon I think I caught this fire from the plane, can anyone confirm that this is the one?

Yes that is it, you can even see the Luecke farm to the right of the smoke. Their last name is carved out of the trees.

Is that from this year, or a few years ago?

Just heard it grew to 4200 ac. today. No bueno. Might be on it this weekend.

Reverse google image search shows that's an old image from the 2011 fire.

It's about to burn my lease. This sucks for everyone involved. Bye bye deer stands and feeders, hopefully the cabin makes it.

Talking with some folks and I believe that is where the fire actually started. Was called the Luecke Fire for a few hours in the beginning and the family shut that down real quick
