As of 10:00 am today, Sunday Nov. 11th - Camp fire in Butte county has now burned more than 110,00 acres. Woolsey fire in Ventura and Los Angeles counties has consumed upwards of 83,000 acres. 25 confirmed deaths so far, and several thousand homes and other structures (so many that they haven't been able to keep an accurate count) have been lost between the two wildfires. The entire town of Paradise is basically gone. Full containment of these fires isn't expected until Thanksgiving. What was once the town of Paradise destroyed by the Camp fire in Northern California. Evacuations from the Woolsey fire in the Malibu area of Southern California.

The Santa Ana winds calmed some today which helped the firefighters in SoCal. But those winds are supposed to pick up again tomorrow. God bless all the firefighters working the Camp and Woolsey fires!

World War I was a global war originating in Europe that lasted from 28 July 1914 to 11 November 1918. More than 70 million military personnel participated, making it one of the largest wars in history. An estimated nine million combatants and seven million civilians died as a direct result of the war with losses exacerbated by technological developments and the tactical stalemate caused by trench warfare (pictured). The war is also considered a contributory factor in a number of genocides and the 1918 influenza epidemic, which caused between 50 and 100 million deaths worldwide. Unresolved rivalries at the end of the conflict contributed to the outbreak of World War II about twenty years later. - c/o Wikipedia Photograph: Lt. J. W.
