Default Fire Fire Fire

Anyone who lives in the Reno area has seen all of the crazy fires this last week. The one in South Tahoe burnt down 165 structers and threatens 500 more! I was wondering if anyone else around the country is having the same fire problem. I had one right across from my street. Here are some photos I took this morning:




I was out of town when the fire took place, but my friends told me about it. This isn't the first time though. In 2000 a huge fire burnt all of the hills around my house. Here is a pic of that.

As you can see that goes way back there and a couple miles to the left too.

Reminds me of the movie "The World's Fastest Indian" when the guy lights the grass on fire because his neighbors said he should "do something" about his lawn.

One of my best friend's in-laws lost their house in that Tahoe fire.

Ive been hearing about it too. It sounds like a massive fire going right through a pretty populated area.
