Mission Mission

6 (six) fire trucks came out for this event. Nobody ate anything. No injuries. I did hear some helpful tips, though. I’m summarizing them below.

Please be careful when you’re cooking your food. If you burn it, there could be trouble.

One Response to “Burnt Food On Valencia Tonight”

   A neighbor in my building recently had to call the fire department because smoke was pouring out of the neighboring house’s window. The side of our building is a mere 5 feet reach from theirs.
   We’re at 19th and Shotwell and could throw a rock and hit the fire house (and its fun training building).
   Still, 5 fire trucks arrived (not all from the station across the street) along with the marshal in his truck.
   A couple firepeople ran up and luckily it was only a kitchen fire that had managed to put itself out.

   Why the massive response to a smoldering curtain?

   Because of that 5 foot reach and the quaintness of our buildings. Supposedly because the homes in our neighborhood are old and close together, the likelihood of them going up like a pile of dry sticks is pretty high. So it is common practice to respond as if its a 4 or 5 alarm if the call is from certain part of the city.

   Just burnt food for though.
