Two major wildfires continue to consume thousands of acres and destroy dozens of homes in central Colorado. The Black Forest Fire is one of two major fires taking its toll on Colorado Springs. The other, The Royal Gorge Fire, is burning on the other side of Colorado Springs, threatening the iconic Royal Gorge Suspension Bridge. High temps, dry brush and gusty winds are keeping the fires from being contained.

Stephen King, John Mellencamp and T-Bone Burnett's collaboration on the musical Ghost Brothers of Darkland County began 13 years ago. Inspiration for the story came when Mellencamp bought a vacation cabin; he says he found out just after closing that the home was the site of the tragic death of two brothers and the girl they both loved.
