Del Puerte Canyon Fire . . .

Tonite Wayne Smith and I responded to the ICP(Incident Command) of the Del Puerte Canyon Fire. Their coffee maker went offline and the firefighters were in need of coffee. We scrounged up as many pots as we could and took them out to the command post. The ICP is a portable city of 2000 people. Shower trailers, kitchens and air conditioned tents. It was an amazing operation to see. Tommorrow morning the firefighters will have coffee with breakfast. . . .

Fire! Del Puerto Canyon

The Del Puerto Canyon fire is getting closer to subdivisions near Patterson, CA. We have been placed on standby for feeding and sheltering. The fire is a 3000 acre fire 20% controlled. I will keep everyone updated as I hear more info.
