Not all of my posts can be fun and booze. It's hot, it's dry and it is already a horrible fire season and it's only June, so make sure you are careful and observe the fire ban.
Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper today signed a ban on open burning and private use of fireworks statewide because of the dry conditions and high fire danger.
"We're not telling people not to go outside and enjoy the outdoors," Hickenlooper said at an afternoon press conference. "We're going to celebrate the Fourth of July."
The ban does not apply to campfires in constructed, permanent fire pits in campground and recreation sites. Commercial, professional and municipal firework displays are allowed, if the county sheriff has given written approval.
Liquid-fueled or gas-fueled stoves, fireplaces within buildings, charcoal grills at private residences and controlled burns for agricultural or irrigation purposes are also still permitted under the ban. ***Read full article from The Denver Post at http://www.denverpost.com/breakingnews/ci_20858292/colorado-bans-open-burning-other-structured-campfires-private***
