It has been a bad weekend here in the Antelope Valley. The Station fire has hit Acton and now threatening Juniper Hills. Several homes south of Acton were lost, families have had to evacuate. family pets and livestock have been taken to the A.V. fairgrounds for safe keeping.
Currently the Station fire has burned 105,00 acres, threatening 12,000 homes and Mt. Wilson Observatory & Communication towers.
On a very sad note on Aug. 30, two firefighters were fatally wounded when their truck went off the mountainside near Mt. Gleason. These two brave men were Captain Ted Hall and Arnie Quinones.
