wow, those are awesomely terrifying. is your house going to be safe from the fire?

my dad works for the department of forestry and has fought a great many forest fires all over the U.S. and i can say that big fires like that pretty much terrify me. nothing like a 3 a.m. phone call and dad rushing out the door (without knowing when he will be back) to fight a fire up on the mountain somewhere. :shudder:
