Try to Set the Night on Fire...

I started school this past Monday. I will be in school Monday through Thursday until the end of the fall semester. So far it's been going good. I think it will be a bit tough on me at first, since it has been eight years since I last focused on JUST school. I took a class on the History of the Vietnam War a few years ago, but it was an online class, so I feel like that's a bit different. Although, the reading assignments for that class were pretty demanding, I am sure it's only going to pick up for these classes.

Anyhow.

I live pretty close to the Station Fire (more information can be gleaned here, as well). I could see the flames of the fire from the area I live. The air quality has been rated as unhealthy due to, of course, the fire.

I am ok, though, and no evacuation has been ordered for the area I live in. They are doing the best they can to contain this fire and I hope no more lives are lost and that no one else is injured fighting this wildfire (and any other wildfire, for that matter, as there are more).
