Governor Schwarzenegger thanks Lieutenant Governor John Garamendi

Governor Schwarzenegger is back from Europe, and today he thanked Lieutenant Governor John Garamendi for acting quickly to deal with the Tahoe Fire. It’s not over yet: the Tahoe fire is only about 40% contained, and flare-ups have raised the number of evacuated residents to 3,500. About 200 homes have been lost, and others may still be in danger. So far, there have been no fatalities or serious injuries.
