Texas Wildfires
A helicopter is used to drop water on a wildfire, Monday, Sept. 5, 2011, near Bastrop, Texas. A roaring wildfire raced unchecked Monday through rain-starved farm and ranchland in Texas, destroying nearly 500 homes during a rapid advance fanned in part by howling winds from the remnants of Tropical Storm Lee.
