Good luck and please don't wait too long if they tell you to evacuate. We had to leave several times for the Station Fire and later for mudslides in 2009. Better to be safe and live for another day. BTW, I always enjoy your photos, keep up the great work!

Timely photos! Hope you and yours are spared! It will be interesting to see how nature recovers there. Here's hoping for gentle rains afterward to settle the dust and nourish seedlings.

Excellent shots. Now evacuate and don't worry about stuff. Everything can be replaced but your life is most important.
