Cal fire was flying about 100 feet over my house dumping water about 200 feet from our property. Thank you fire department neighbors, and cal fire! They say it’s 100% contained and just making sure it’s not burning underneath. Phew. Scary as hell.

Too close for comfort for a fact even for me!!! I’m just across Hwy 36 from all the action, if it had got away into the trees it would have been all over for us, with all the trees surrounding my cracker box on all sides!!!
