Fire! Fire! Fire!

On Sunday there was a huge grass fire in Rose Canyon. It came down the canyon and into Herriman. Unfortunately 3 or 4 homes were lost, but fortunately there weren't more. These are pictures from the newspaper. I post a few from our camera later. We had a very clear view from our house.... kind of scary that the flames were so big we could see them all the way across the valley. Several people we know had to evacuate their homes (about 1600 homes all together). Some people have been allowed back in their homes, but the fire is only 25% contained so many are still in danger. Hopefully the fire will stay in the canyon and away from the homes.
