Fires on Base

So the past week has been very interesting. First last week there was a big fire on mainside by the golf course. Then yesterday, a huge fire broke out at mainside again. This one has burned over 4,000 acres and as of last I heard was only 60% contained. My friend had to evacuate her house yesterday. She was allowed back in there late this afternoon. Then this morning a brush fire breaks out on Las Pulgas Road, which isn't real far from us. That one they got out quicker. I prepared and packed just incase we had to leave. We were lucky and didn't have to. Of course it wasn't very easy to get things around when the boys were awake. They shut our power off for a few hours so that was frustrating since we couldn't keep up on what was going on with the news. But we are safe and lets just hope no more fires break out on base anytime soon.
