If any of you are shut ins in ya basement if you go outside and look towards Camp Williams you will see a huge fire. I tried getting video, but the iPhone camera sucks. The trib webite seems to be down because of the amount of people looking for news.

I grew up around there (although more in Riverton), just got off the phone with my parents and they are about a mile from the evacuation line.

IIRC, Jerry Sloan has a house out in the Herriman area. Wonder if he's in town and if so whether he's in the evacuation area.

Yep this is a pretty big fire. I hope they can get it under control so that not to many people lose their homes.

Any ideas as to what started the fire?

It was a spark caused by gunfire at Camp Williams.

Dont worry. If Sloan is in some sort of trouble, I'm sure Paper Face and the59sound would gladly offer to share their parent's basement with him until he can get back on his feet.

I'd gladly sleep outside so Sloan could sleep in my bed. If he doesn't mind the suspicious stains and the even more suspicious smells.

This comment made me laugh and gag at the same time...
