Not your typical work fire

Today, just outside the building I work at, a brush fire started on the hogback. I had already left for home, but I could easily see it from our house. There were countless firetrucks that showed up and helicopters flying over. It pretty quickly went over the hogback away from work, but even as of tonight, it has not been contained.

On our way home from dinner, we stopped to take a few pictures from the road by our house. I hope its contained soon and doesnt spread. There isn't rain in the forecast, but there's a huge lake between us and the fire. The strong winds and big gusts didn't help its cause today.
