Oklahoma Wildfires




On Thursday April 9, 2009 Midwest City and Choctaw Oklahoma were burned and burned badly. These fires moved through highly populated areas with 50 mile sustained winds fighting them was almost useless.


As the fires moved I paced. I paced because the fires were moving closer and closer to my parents house. They were less than a mile away on one side and 1.5 miles away on another, and to compound the issue the winds shifted during all of this. Luckily my parents were saved but over 130 homes were not! Below are some photos from the Daily Oklahoman Website where a firend of mine works.
