From Brush Fire to Spot Fires

Tweet

There was a live feed of the brush fire by the ridge that quickly threatened properties at Pacific Palisades. The firefighters, with well meaning construction workers, did put a stand preventing the flames from reaching the posh hood houses. The Sikorsky helicopters were a sight to see, making precision drops to extinguish the fire. Marveling at the super effort the firemen exhibited, I said a prayer and went to sleep. Sleep was short, and I deemed to check on the aftermath of the California fire. In disbelief, the live feed is now focused on San Bernardino spot fires, and the as night falls, the embers begin to show an ominous glow. Many a thought comes to mind but the courage and resolve of the firefighters is simply incredible. Where do they get the stamina, I don't know, but it's been hours, and considering the aerial shot of the extent of the spot fires, it will be a long, harrowing night.
