A View of the Fires



Here are some pictures that I took from where I work. The smoke is from the fires across the valley. These were taken from Mulholland Drive on the south side of the San Fernando Valley looking at the Porter Ranch area on the north side of the San Fernando Valley about 14 miles away. The fire had been burning for about 24 hours when I took this photo. It has burned over 10,000 acres. This afternoon the smoke is virtually gone. Good job, Firefighters! Still, everytime I step outside I can't help but notice that everywhere smells like a campfire.
P.S. To our moms: This is far away from where we live. We are both quite safe.
