Fire! Fire! Everywhere!

It is amazing how much of Southern California can burn. Not only did we have the huge fire in Montecito, but Friday night and Saturday gave us more fires. The Sayre fire in Sylmar and the Freeway Complex fire that was in Corona, Yorba Linda, Anaheim Hills, and a lot of other locations. Horrible is all I can describe it as. We were lucky in the sense that all the smoke was blowing the other way and not into the Santa Clarita Valley. Matt and I went to visit my grandpa in Sunland yesterday and drove right by the Oakridge Mobile Home Park. OMG! There was pretty much nothing left. We could even see cadaver dogs and firefighters looking through the mess. As of yet, I have not heard of anyone who had been found-which is quite amazing considering the amount of damage and the time and the number of people who was there.
