Good Grief,
What a shock to see this! Glad you were there to protect and take command of the situation. Just sorry it happened. All is well on the home front. If I can do anything I would be happy to. Please let me know. Prayers, Lynne.

Would have sucked if it had burned down before I had a chance to visit.

Holy Schitt, Jim! Glad to hear that both you and Angela are OK; also the house, but that's really less important than your own a$$ and that of your wife!

Scary indeed! I like the sound of firefighters being called bomberos. I have visions of the fire being bombed with water. So glad you and Angela are ok !

Good job getting it good work on getting it contained. You guys are sure lucky, wildfires are immensely powerful.
Any idea how this started? Sorry if I missed it somewhere upthread.

Glad all is well there. Been on The Yerian's butt to keep the house keeping up! Did I hear you say fishing, as in Tenkara? When you get back let's "hook up" and wet the lines Jim.
Peace

My bet is Mr. Donini did a little more fire fighting than he is letting on!

Glad you are both okay and were able to save your home.
Have you thought of building a defensible area around the home?

Ringed around Donini's house
The fire chased the Yanqui
Our hero thought none of it fun
"Whew," goes Donini.
Ashes, ashes,
Don't fall down.
Nice catch, Jim!
God loves ya!
