Looks like a big fire up the hill, looks to be in EDH. White smoke, probably a grass fire.

It started at about 3:30 this afternoon. I passed it just as the first chp motorcycle guy stopped to call it in. I was surprised to see there were still personnel there after 5pm when I passed by on my way home from my hair appointment.

I drove by it around 5PM and it was still burning. The wind kicked up around that time and they had a hard time getting it out. Lots of angry motorists were sent down Scott road with nowhere to turn around. It was obvious by the path of the fire that it was most likely started by someone throwing a cigarette out the window.:(

It was smoldering this AM and a single fire truck was out there hosing it down around 7:15 AM today.
Where have all the flowers gone?
