More than 14,480 firefighters are fighting the 13 active fires in the state of California. Our family experienced the pain from one of the fires very closely.  My sincere thanks to all the fire fighting heros who are on the frontline serving the affected communities. 

Opaque skies, Smokey air Gloomy times, Ashes all over Burning fire, Steep terrain Gusty winds, Fight extends Double shifts, Lengthy nights Unfavorable conditions, Hazardous sites Skyrocketing blazes, Stinging eyes Tenacious labor, Brave exploits Wind alterations, falling embers Spot fires, Challenging levels Dealing with hazardous flames and willing to take risks saving others while making self-sacrifice I appreciate your courage, compassion and devotion Sending prayers for your safety and a successful mission
