Check out this video; it's truly terrifying. I'm glad this man made it out. His adrenaline must have been through the roof, and you can hear the fear in his voice when he utters his only three words.
There are more pics of the inferno at Zero Hedge. Really scary stuff.
Brrr, that is just horrifying, I can't imagine being stuck in such a dire situation. I hope they get these fires under control, it's good that fall is here, that should help.
ReplyDeleteThe vid gave me the terror-chills too! Yikes. He was courageous to keep his wits about him, for sure. It would have been so easy to panic!
DeleteI saw a couple fires like this when I lived in Folsom and would drive around through the hills - nothing this close tho! And these fires now are much more aggressive due to the drought.
ReplyDeleteWeirdly, it occurred to me that the SAMCRO cabin is probably in the vicinity of these fires - check the map?
LR, did you ever finish Sons of Anarchy?
I haven't finished SoA or much of anything! I've been busier than a 3-armed paper hanger (which is good. I think.). Between work, personal to-do's, and family health issues I'm lucky to remember my own name. lol
DeleteI WILL finish it though. It's not first on my back-burner list. Matt and I are working on a project (if he doesn't give up on me) that I'd like to get to first. :)

Deletetee hee
My neighbor (who is a bike rider and just turned 60) sent me this.
Niiice!
DeleteI've also been working on a long post....something historical. I was doing research for a client (my 2nd job) when I stumbled upon an event that left me stunned. Replete with family secrets, conspiracies, horrible death, religious devotion (or fanaticism), and amazing heroism, it's a tale that needs to be told.
ReplyDeleteWe really do a piss-poor job teaching American history in this country. Truth.
Wow, that sounds... compelling! Can't wait!
DeleteYes, it sounds intruiging, I'm looking forward to reading it! I hope your family health issues are being resolved....hugs to you, lady red...
DeleteSpeaking of "out of control"... I've watched this a dozen times now!
ReplyDeleteAwesome! I have watched it 6 times already.
ReplyDeleteGo turtle!
What kind of turtle is it?
DeleteIt's a ninja turtle!
