The winds have started too. I hope they are able to get the fire out soon.
Good Job Fire DEPT. for getting the fire under control with out any more damage.
Another homeless group that won’t be arrested I am sure.
Is there any news on the final outcome here? Did U Haul get put out of business? is Dolan’s okay?
