FIRE SCARE ON THE EAST SIDE OF MI WUK

The sound of planes and helicopters began around 5.30 a.m. today on east side of Mi Wuk.  Cal Fire, Mi Wuk Sugar Pine Fire Department, and probably other agencies unknown to me responded quickly.  Since it was right over the hill from our home, I went out and took some photos.  I understand that ultimately the fire was contained to less than 4 acres but it gave quite a scare between 5.30 and 10 a.m. this morning.

 8:10 a.m.

 8:13 a.m.

8:23 a.m. MWSPFPD Apparatus standing-by at the end of Tiasmu Ct., on the forest boundary.

8:51 a.m., a bomber setting up for his drop

9.18 a.m.

9.20 a.m., preparing for another retardant drop

9:22 a.m. Jeff, bringing the coffee boost back to the Klipple home.  We met him on the trail.

These photos were taken between 8:10 and 9.22 this morning.  And tonight normalcy has returned, at least for the homeowners.

FYI......TEMPERATURES THESE DAYS.......

THURSDAY, September 16th, high for the day:  81 degrees, Mi Wuk Vlg., Sunny except for the smoke from the morning fire in eastern Mi Wuk.

TUESDAY, September 14th, 3 p.m.  82 degrees F. in Twain Harte, Sunny

WELCOME TO THE NEW MAHA BLOG

How cool is this!?  A blog for the Mi Wuk Area Homeowners Association!  You will be able to check here for all local activities and announcements.  That's a benefit to both permanent residents of the Mi Wuk / Sugar Pine area as well as part time/second home residents.  I hope you will enjoy our blog.  A means will be set up shortly for you to ask questions, most likely in a comment box below an article.  A comment will alert a MAHA board member who will then answer your question in another article, also known as a blog post.

Most recent articles will appear at the top of the page. You can scroll down the page to access older articles.  In time we will have archives for each year.

Soon you will be able to subscribe to this blog.  Doing that will alert you, via email, whenever a new article or event has been posted.  I have noticed that there is a "Subscribe by Email" button at the bottom of this article.

Please check back soon for more news and information from MAHA.  What can you look for?

• Upcoming community activities, such as the semi-annual MAHA community meetings.
• Mi Wuk / Sugar Pine Fire Protection District events, such as fund raisers.
• Public announcements

I'm guessing you're getting the general idea.

For Example:  Today, September 11th, was the Fall General Membership Meeting, 10 a.m., Mi Wuk Little Library in the Woods / Community Center.

Welcome to you all and please stop back frequently.
