Long Fire

Here’s a picture from our drive way looking at the smoke from the Long Fire. It is just over the mountain and growing slowly. Yesterday they used numerous aircraft including 2 Hercules C130’s. I can’t help but think of the animals effected, right now there are no homes threatened.

That's what I always think about when there is some kind of sad event like this, the animals.
There is no threat to you is there? Not likely to come over the mountain right?

Hopefully they can get it contained.🤗🙏🤗🙏 to you, your family, friends and the people in the area. And the fire men fighting for you especially 🤗

I think the same way when it comes to stuff like this😭
Hopefully most of the animals have been able to flee to safety🙏❤️

Thank You for the prayers, we are fighters and will fight with every breath we have to protect ALL of our Haven but a little help never hurts.

So yesterday the fire grew from 160 acres to 1600 acres .... 24 hours 10 times larger give or take. The fire mapping might not of been done consistently. Yesterday they also dropped in their #1 and #2 Hot Shot Strike teams, this says a lot of what they think the fire will behave like. We are hoping it does not come over the Mountain but no guarantees this fire is starting to show it's ugly side. The fire was started by the Trout fire just a few miles north whose embers carried by the wind blew up against this mountain. We have enacted the CaneBrake Fire Dept., which is a Top Tier Redneck 4x4 fighting force! If it does come over the Mountain we will be dispatched to our neighbors properties. If we can help stop it before it gets to the highway then our place is just that much safer.
Where the fire is right now is the location of most southern Giant Sequoias. Some may remember last year when we lost more than 3 dozen Giant Sequoias, this is close to where the Trout fire is now.
Thank You @wellington for your concern it does make us feel good.

Just had a update ..... The fire is now 4,000+ acres as of midnight. That blows my previous posts numbers to a crazy exponential growth.
