Although I’m stationed in the Bay Area these days, I woke up this morning and soon learned that my hometown of La Canada Flintridge, a small city northeast of Downtown LA was on fire.  Conveniently, with my parents out of town, I needed to learn what was going on and needed to spread the word to concerned friends and family (and my parents).

A great source for reading about updates on the fire is this website produced by the city: http://www.lacanadaflintridge.com/news/welcome.cfm?action=details&ID=323
