Cali Fires

Sorry for the lack of posts guys. There was a fire about a mile from my house, so we had to pack it up and leave for a little bit. Fortunately the winds were calm (which is unusual) and the fire crew was quick to contain it.

I've heard reports that we'll be living with smoke in the air 'til the fall, because there are too many fires for them to contain. Its like stepping out into fog 24/7. I'm not looking forward to living in that til September.

Google fire map. I'm sure everyone already knows about this site - but in case you don't it shows where all the active fires are.

I hope everyone else in CA has stayed safe.

-Update-

I'm still around guys. Just been busy as hell. My mother tore both tendons in her ankle so I've been having to help her out. All the while getting everything ready for class in the fall, and trying to find some ambulance services to get in touch with. So if anyone is still around, I'll try to have a more interesting post in the next couple days.

Wow, that's scary, i'm so glad you are okay! It's terrible, all the wild fires, then all the floods...things are sooooo mixed up!
How is your emt class? wish i were still in class...because of various reasons, i was not able to test with my class (and my partner)...i tested with another group about 1 1/2 weeks ago...and failed the trauma station....dumb. We went in to "Over time"....forgot to watch the clock on a "load and go"...
