Controlled Burn

Some old abandoned buildings are in the lot across the street from where Brent and I work. There are plans to build a shopping center there so the buildings had to be demolished. Firefighters set up a controlled burn to practice on last week and this week. It was quite interesting to watch, but scary at the same time to know that buildings were burning across the street and it was business as usual. In the second picture you can see our office (CH2M Hill) across the street from the fire. We have parts of the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th floors. Our teamspace on each floor looks out to the buildings so there were always people checking things out. The first picture is taken from one of our teamspaces.
