Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger proclaimed a state of emergency in Los Angeles County as the fire in the foothills of La Canada threatens the nearby residents. The fire, which started Thursday, has currently blazed through over 1200 acres surrounding Angeles Crest Highway and the northernmost sections of La Canada. As of Friday afternoon the fire has spread east bound towards Altadena, and is also spreading South towards the La Canada homes and that lie below.
So far evacuations have been only made voluntary to more than 870 homes by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. The homes being threatened by the fire lie north and east of Vista Del Valle Road and the streets surrounding the La Canada Flintridge Country Club.
After removing items from my father's La Canada home, which lies in the path of the fire, I took these amateur photos with my camera phone. If my lungs are hurting after just removing a few valuables from the inside of a house, I can imagine how the 800 firefighters that are currently working on putting this one out are feeling.
Excellent real estate in canada.
