Fire today


We had a fire today on the hill above our home. It was kind of nerve racking for a bit considering the hoard fire that has devastated SB last night. They were able to knock it down pretty quickly though...there was a big contingent of fire vehicles heading to SB and they detoured them to here...so in a matter of 1-2 hrs we had 200 firefighters here ready to go. The bomber plane was amazing, I'm convinced those pilots are adrenalin junkies...I watched for a couple of hours and wow they're crazy/amazing/talented...whatever you want to call it, I think I'll go with crazy.
The photo is taken from our house. Notice the firefighters on the hill and the orange fire retardant.
