winds have died down so they're making progress while yesterday it was futile. i think 20% containment as of this morning.

i'm at work in foster city, and i can barely make out the belmont hills. walking/breathing outside stinks, and i'm about 50 miles away. can't imagine what its like around watsonville. best wishes everyone down there.

 

Last I heard:

3500 acres
20-25% containment
Fog was good
Winds much calmer

My kids thought a 4 day weekend was cool.

 

Yeah they're making headway. Rain is expected tonight or tomorrow.

Thank God... big G God for that.

 

My car after yesterday..

 

fire career is like the best thing that can happen to you if youre really into it. i have so much damn passion about it its gross. my brother is supporting me super much, hes a cop and on swat and is now a detective for alameda county and also had a 05 aspen white sti.

but anyways. i suggest you go to a local station or something and interview a ff and get a better idea of what you're going to be doing. 70% if not more of the call volume is medical. my parents hate the idea and want me to just be a paramedic. **** that. i want to put out fires and get my custom firefighter license plate haha.
