Wild fire near our home...

So this is the Ethan Brush Fire burning at 99th Avenue & Baseline.  I live about 3 or so miles from it.  Lucky for us, it's going west, not east!  We are, however getting plenty of ash and really dark cloudy sky from it.  It's a little freaky to be this close to a fire.  The news says it's over 2,000 miles wide now, oh and I just read it's headed east.  Good times.  Luckily there's a bunch of stuff to burn between here and there.  Here is the view from the East Valley:

 I hope they get it out soon.  I am enjoying the shade it offers though...
