Just read the news on this and saw Paradise and Jim you were the first person I thought of and came here figuring I would hear something. Glad to hear you are safe. Must be pretty suspenseful not knowing if the homesite is still standing. Stay safe we are hoping for the best.

Glad to hear you are safe. I hope your house is still standing. My wife's brother lost his house in a forest fire a few years ago, he lost everything.

What a horrible thing to have to leave your stuff (not just your truck) behind, but you made the only good choice. Hoping all is not lost!
