Good and hopeful thoughts to all those affected. We've been in our house going on 46 years, thru countless fires, even seen flames from our front yard. Scarry deal. Last year it got within 1.5 miles of us, and we actually started packing up. Besides the cats and obvious paperwork and what photos I could grab, i took the Legnano that I've been riding and loving for 56 years. I also took the '73 Raleigh Super Course, my first build from a found bare frame. The brave firefighters stopped this one, but there will be more. So far so good here, hopefully it will spare you too this time. My brother, in Monterey, near Laguna Seca had to evacuate this past week, which included moving 9 motorcycles to "safe " storage somewhere. He's home now, fingers crossed. Hang in there. Stay safe! Couple of pictures from this season.
The view from our house of the Lake Hughes fire, not as as close as it looks, thankfully.
My nephew is an Atascadero firefighter/EMT. This is his 4WD ambulance, which he calls his "hot rod". He was working the Carmel Valley fire, last time we heard from him.
