Fire sucks. Especially when you have to go against it and you are not a firefighter. Ask me, I can tell you from personal experience.
Can a firefighter member tell me why; when a home is on fire, every occupant of the home goes limp and wants you to carry them out? I am not talking about unconcious people or disabled people.
fear is the only answer I can come up with....I dont even mind that it makes for less struggle, on their part that it is ......its MORE struggle on my part especialy when they are mid tripple digits if you know what I mean

My thoughts are with those of you living in California.
Hope the arsonist gets caught.
Fire is a frightening experience. Ann and I were in a small hotel which caught fire on Christmas Day 2004 but thankfully something had caused me to go outside via a back door earlier in the day and I was able to lead Ann and another guest through the smoke to this exit where I fumbled for, found and turned the key and we escaped safety into the fresh air.

My thoughts and prayers are with those facing this catastrophe and those already damaged or killed by it. Something of this magnatude is just unfathomable. It makes all my petty troubles inconsequential. Blessings on all of you Firefighters who try to protect us from the likes of this.
My father was a wildland firefighter for over 37 years, he retired as a Hot Shot Superintendent after the monster fire in Arizona. I've seen his pictures from all over the US and Canada and even video after he retired, people truly have no clue just how powerful wildfires are.
The US Forest Service is the only federal agency that can be onsite in 36 hours and have camps set up and running with no hickups, you should see them set up fire camp truly amazing, FEMA could learn a lot from them.
