Father's Day

It started out like any other beautiful Sunday Father's Day in SoCal and then we noticed helicopters flying overhead. Renee and Tom, Jim and Elaine had a hard time getting into the park because the hills were on fire around the lake. Lots of smoke built up and we could see flames but the park ranger said it was around the other side of the lake.

We watched the helicopters load up with water to drop on the flames.

However, it got more serious when the LA police came by to say we should get ready to evacuate.

So everyone pitched in to break camp and be ready for the worst....

...but the firemen were successful, the flames were doused, son Jim treated us to Boston Market Dinner and all's well that ends well.
