Re: Bonny Doon/Santa Cruz Fire....HELP PLEASE!

Ok, so I'm back home.

We had to evac per the SO.

Fire was coming straight at the house when we left, approximately 2500 feet away.

Last night we were watching the flames go above the trees.

We got everything out that was important; to my mom it was pictures, to my dad it was the Charger and the Shelby.

Anyways, I'm just going to watch the news now and see if they show the house.

I'll upload some pictures as soon as they are done being transfered to my comp.

So far the fire is making a crescent moon shape around my dad's house, the wind will decide it's fate.

BD, tell your guys to be ready for thick, never cleared brush, pine, madrone, redwood, poision oak, and some rattlers.

Here is the only fire map I can find, it's old, but gives you an idea how close it is.

The line is the distance from the live fire to the house.
