Here is a partial post from "Next Door Circle Oaks"----------------------------Regarding the most current situation in Circle Oaks
Positive Update from Tom Miller: I talked with him today and he said ok to pass on the info that not one home has burned, and Circle Oaks is "probably" in the clear. This is mainly due to the fire burning completely around the Circle Oaks community. The berry patch along Ridgecrest is gone. All around CO is burned (and that means the fuel all around Circle Oaks) has burned, which is good because if there is another serious wind shift, there is little fuel for an inferno. The firefighters basically let the fire approach Circle Oaks and then stopped it and back burned it away this is to help protect homes in CO. These were slow burning fires as it came down the hill with little or no wind. Easy to control, put out and manage. There is a Battalion Chief fire fighter (who lives in CO) who is in charge of the fight up there and you can be sure they are doing their best to protect the community.
