Wildfire in Anaheim Hills

MickeyLumbo · 02-07-2006, 10:08 AM

the homes under mandatory evacuation orders are about 2 miles southeast of my home. the winds have calmed down (great news) and last hour authorities were going to re-evaluate evac needs.

it was tough going to sleep last night with flames clearly visible from the top of the ridge.

the air attack is well under way this morning and i am feeling much better about the situation. granted, a major freeway and a few miles stand between the fire and here...but, i can certainly remember the horror of how quickly a wild fire can march several miles and consume everything in its path (laguna and malibu as examples).

so, other than my house smelling like a campfire and ash everywhere, all is well.

God bless the firefighters!
