San Diego Fires

We were called on October 23rd, 2007, to ask if we could get a Command Post trailer out to San Diego for the fires. We left at 2:30 pm Tuesday and arrived at 6 am on Thursday.


All day Friday and Saturday was spent helping the animals in Jamul and Dulzura. Constant heat and dryness were the worst of the day for comfort level. Sumter DART and assisting teams worked helping over 500 animals in the two days, along with countless people who needed help. On Sunday morning, Ronnie drove back to the east coast with the rig and arrived home in Florida on Tuesday night.
