    logo_verdevalleyfiredistrictCottonwood AZ (October 7, 2019) – On Saturday October 5th, at approximately 4:15 PM, the Verde Valley Fire District responded to a Residential Fire in Oak Creek Valley.

    VVFD was originally dispatched to a tree on fire near a house. While en route the call was changed to a residential structure fire. Crews viewed a significant column of smoke while driving to the scene and upgraded to a “working fire.” On arrival they found several community members had acted quickly to apply water to the flames that burned the tree and then caught the side of the house and roof on fire.

    The Cottonwood Fire and Medical Department pulled a hose line to the side yard and began to fight the fire from there. VVFD established a water supply and pulled a second line to enter from the front door and check for fire extension. After the flames were extinguished an extensive overhaul was performed to make sure no fire was hidden in the attic space or the void under the floor. The Verde Valley Ambulance Company arrived and assessed one homeowner who refused further treatment.

    No one was injured in the incident but unfortunately the home has some severe damage. The residents were required to be relocated.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
