Well, today on base we lost over 125 homes. Actually they were all abandoned houses that were scheduled to be torn down. Thank the Lord those homes were not occupied or already gone. It would have spread quickly to many, many, occupied homes. Here is a website of a local news channel that was covering the fire. You can see some of the videos of it. Its pretty scary.

We had to stay in doors with our windows shut and our air conditioners off. The smoke was horrible and even with the windows shut and the air off it was unbearably smokey anyways. The fires are still going even now after midnight and it started somewhere around 3:15 this afternoon.
