My house sits in the middle of Mountain Mesa. The fire surrounded my neighborhood on three sides! But thanks to the fire crews and some really crazy pilots on the water drop helis and planes...no damage to my area!. Power gone for a week, internet longer, but...safe!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695368/8750050.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695368/8750050.page GMT I survived the Erskine Creek fire in california. http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695368/8750058.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/695368/8750058.page GMT Re:I survived the Erskine Creek fire in california.
The rapid movement of the fire was frightening and i feel horrible for the two elderly women who perished on their property.

Are you in the clear now?

Not intimately as I don't live there, but I am down in the San Gabriel Valley and have been watching news updates on KTLA since the fire broke. The Azusa and Duarte fires were not too far from me and some co-workers were evacuated but luckily didn't lose any property. I heard a horse stable burned in one of those two fires, though, and some horses were lost which was sad to hear.

Despite that ugliness of the fires it was kinda neat seeing the water and fire retardant drops from such close proximity. Those pilots are exceptionally talented.
