Thanks for the share. Even being through two major fires it is so hard to imagine until you are let back in to your own town and place you call home. Even years later ryding through the old burn you still see the devastation and will for many many years. Such a sad thing but you really see the "Community" come out and that is always a good thing.

That was only one of what ended up being 4 major fires (there were many and some merged) in my area! I live in Sonoma, CA and had mandatory evacuations all around me, with only an advisory one for my immediate area which I was able to ride out! You can see the fire outlines here: http://www.fire.ca.gov/general/firemaps and if you do a search online for Northbay Fires, you can get a better picture of the hell we went thru!


Firefighters ROCK!!

Thanks for the share. It gives one a real sense of what it had to be like for a firefighter trying to do something worthwhile in that inferno.
