It might be (C0ncreteBl0nde may have more info), but our Agency always had to remove the roof shingles and similar combustible materials before a training fire. It's also a bad time of the year because of dry conditions and heat.

Yes it was a "burn to learn."
Some years we have so many monarchs fluttering about that you can’t go outside without seeing a dozen. I remember one year in particular they were all over the place. I think they are pretty good at settling where the land supports them, and some of that is simply related to drought and when folks burn their pastures. Milkweed is an early succession plant, so they will really spring up a year after a good prescribed burn. If Kansans like anything, it’s a good hardy prescribed burn. One thing they definitely don’t like is Oz jokes. 
We have a few adults flying in yard and in nearby prairie restorations I have seen .. no catipillars on our milkweeds I planted a couple years back but some years we see them like photo I took at prairie
Never tried raising them but planted milkeeds couple years back this year is best year for their growth for us but no catiplllars like I saw on milkweeds in prairie yet but we have them flying around on the flowers in our yard.
We started seeing the fliers last month but more showing now so early migration? I have milkweeds in yard that are doing best this year but no catipillars I can see on them although something is eating them.
Hey rjjacobson and HawkTheHusky1902, it is easiest to use "multi quote" when responding to multiple posts in a row (Multi-Quote - to comment on several photos, click the "+ (Multi-Quote) button. This puts all your comments in one post. Multi-Quoting is required on all of the MacRumors forums.

Thank you! Late July and early August are prime times for the aquatic hibiscus to bloom around the water's edge. The white bits beyond the flowers themselves are actually reflections in the water, either of the flowers or the clouds in the sky above or both.
That’s a beautiful picture, makes me wonder what it would look like as an iPhone background. 💙

Does it still have a rollercoaster at the top?

You find all the posts that you want to reply to and hit the "Quote" button on each of them.
You can do that to multiple posts and when you have "selected" to quote it the + sign turns into a - .
Then when you go to the "write your reply" box you select "Insert quotes" and all quotes will be inserted in the reply and you can add your comments to them.
So this way you can reply to multiple people in one post. I hope this explanation makes more sense.
