I lived off of Ice Cream Grade in colledge.

beautiful area. this sucks.
 
I hope the fd can handle it. Also there is the vamps deal this weekend too
 
Ah, shit I forgot about the Vampire ride.

Man that smoke looked bad. I was watching it for hours. :(
 
SOB! i wanted to ride to that area too...:(
 
Yeah, we're not quite in the area that's on fire, though we're almost across the street from the evacuation shelter.. A friend's parents live Right There though, and were somewhat lucky to be on vacation in their RV. They returned home last night to find the roads blocked and forced to camp in Davenport. Thankfully my friend was able to get in past the road closure and get his parent's papers, computer, photoalbums, etc...

Last they checked the fire was going away from them, but could easily turn back on them if the winds change. My house sounded like an airport all evening with the DC10's and helicopters flying over constantly.
 
the news said about 9 fires happening in the BA.2 dry winters+high winds=:(
