Gladding Fire

The helicopter dumping water, That's our front hill in the foreground, you may be able to see the fire engines and fire fighters, waiting.
A few from Grandpa Gene's The conclusion of our Memorial Day
To see the path of the fire go to http://yubanet.com/Gladding_fire_map.pdf
We had a large crew of convict firefighters resting and waiting on the highway strip, along with about 8 fire engines, ambulances, animal control, etc., just in case the fire managed to jump the road. The wind stopped blowing and the fire stopped in Fowler Nursery.

Crazy! Looking at that fire map, I'd say we were pretty lucky. It seems like you guys were pretty prepared though.

I love that last picture.
