Wildland Firefirefighter Foundation

As we approach the 1 year anniversary of the Engine 57 tragedy, I again made my donation to the WFF's 52 Club. That amounts to one dollar a week to a foundation that supports the families of our injured or fallen heroes.

Here's the LINK to the WFF.

Inferno in California

The strong Santa Ana winds have caused a massive disaster in Southern California.

Malibu (Canyon Fire) is burning and the media is covering that fire like Britney's custody battle. Santa Clarita/Canyon Country (Buckweed Fire) homes are burning.

San Diego (Harris Ranch Fire) is a disaster area and had loss of life. And Orange County (Santiago Canyon Fire) has one as well.

Near Hooterville, our BDF is fighting 2 fires in the San Bernardino forest: The Grass Valley and the Slide fires. Homes are burning to the ground and resources are so stretched that many will lose their homes. The Cajon Pass fire has closed I-15.

The Governator has called in out-of-state resources but I haven't heard about calling in the National Guard. Yet.

Please keep our firefighters in your prayers.
