Jul. 13, 2007 - You want shots? We got shots!

Here we have another drill photo. Fire Departments from around the Bay Area gather at Camp Parks in Dublin to practice fighting grass fires. We improve our skills, and Camp Parks has less to worry about after we are done burning off hundreds of acres of dry grass.

The homes in the background weren't there two years ago. We are doing them a favor by reducing the fire danger in the area, but many of the homeowners hate the massive clouds of smoke that are generated by the burns. There is more construction going on all the time, so the dilema will get worse, not better.
