072608 Boring days until someone starts a fire!

072608 Boring days until someone starts a fire!

I've not written much recently basically because there's not too much
to write about. Everyday we work and there are some things that I
must pretty much do every morning and every afternoon and the rest of
the time, 'stuff' comes up. Everyday has also been hot and sunny. I
think I saw a thermometer yesterday indicate 118F, which while hot,
still isn't 'hot-hot'. July and August are the hot months and
September is iffy. It'll still be hot but there'll be some relatively
cool days that indicate summer is over.
Anyway, so the most exciting thing that has happened has been a fire.
This fire was in one of the housing units of the workers at the PX
(AAFES store). Fortunately, the wind wasn't blowing much at all and
the fire was contained quickly. A fire in a tent can be even worse.
With the wind blowing, I'm not sure you could even run fast enough to
escape a fire in a tent.
