Wildfire has been burning up the forest near my home, almost 50,000 acres so far. Pre-evacuation notice for the surrounding communities for the past week. Lots of drama, but rightfully so. In the forests of Arizona, we take fires pretty seriously. The last big on was hundreds of thousands of acres. The last actual evacuation of the big communities out here was 2004 I believe. This one is the Cedar Fire, lots of news and details online, though not as much coverage as the California fires get. Not sure why... well, I have my theories.
