As I woke up this morning I smelt fires burning outside. The fire started in Corona near Green River Drive off of the 91 freeway. There are also 2 other big fires burning in southern California.

There are ashes that are flying all over the city. My whole patio is almost layered in ash. It almost looks like snow that is hitting the ground.

Hot weather and strong winds are not helping the firemen put out the fires.

A few of my friends have had to evacuate there houses and sleep in other places. I am very worried about them and I hope that their houses will be able to be saved. I also pray that everyone has made it out of their houses safely and that no one is hurt during this time. :(

The Santa Ana winds are back in California and that means, yes again, the fires have also returned. As I walked outside last Friday I could smell smoke in the air from the fire that has been burning in the San Diego area. We will just pray that the winds die down and the firemen are soon able to extinguish the fires.
Here are some photos that I found on yahoo if you would like to take a look at them:
