Fire

I know we had a fire last year in August because of the Thunder now we have a fire again and it is only about a block away from where I live. So far it is on the trail that I walk with my dogs which is close to the river. Unfortunately people I know such as my landlord, and my sister's friend, have been asked to leave their homes. The fire is right behind their home. It started a small fire. I smelled something in the bedroon but didn't pay much attention to it then I heard the fire trucks and I went to the front and saw the smoke. I didn't think it was that bad but then I called Charlie and he told me to go check it out. I didn't want to because I didn't want to interfere with the firefighters but I got on my bike and checked it out. It was at the corner of a cul de sac about 3 blocks from my house on the trail. I stayed and checked it out with a few people and it looked like everything was under control so I left. I remembered that I should close all the windows and check on my dogs. I then told my sister about the fire and one of her friend's lives close by. She gave me the address and I went to see if it was close to her house.

When I got close to where the fire was at the firefighters were asking people close to the fire to move their cars and leave their homes. I was surprised considering I thought they had it under control. Slowly the firefighters started moving people out of their homes and they were moving closer to our block. Now everything is blocked up to the street where we live. The firfighters have still managed to contain it to the trail. I don't think any of the houses have been burned. Well I least I hope not.
