Fire!

As you all have probably heard, there's a fire in Yucaipa. That's very near to where I live.

You MIGHT have heard that the first two firefighters lost their lives two days ago. My choir teacher's nephew is a fire captain (he's head honcho of a city fire department). The firefighters belonged to his team.

A few minutes ago, the weather was causing chaos. The atmosphere outside is tense. The air is hot and stuffy. Humidity generally is good for firefighters, but the WIND is not. There was so much wind that all of the garden's corn crops blew over! I'll post some pictures later...

But as I'm writing this, the sun came out (a little bit) and the wind eased up (a VERY little bit)...

I'll keep you guys updated on the situation here.
