Big props to them firefighters get knocked down fairly quickly I was concerned because my dad lives near around there and he has the fire from Hayden on one side of them So I'm really glad they got that knocked down before it became a serious problem

Kudos to the firefighters, glad the fire was contained soon.
I've got a load of logs to get to Naples in the morning, sure hope I don't have to go up 41, that highway plum sux!

This is Level 3 total evacuation and
I look at all those cars with people in them (yeah), but no dogs, no cat, no stock trailers 😢😢😢
BRAVO TO THE FIRE FIGHTES AND AIR CREWS.

That's because the police were threatening to arrest people and charge them with looting. And we're threatening people if they refuse to leave their homes . The police have overstepped their boundaries big time. 🖕🖕🖕🖕

With the horses and such mostly you can do is just open the gate and shoot him out of there they'll know where to go to escape the fire
