Smoked Out

On July 27th of this year the largest fire in California history got started roughly 20 plus miles to the east of us. The Mendocino Complex Fires is made up of two fires that are close together. The River Fire and the Ranch Fire. To date they have burned 378,720 acres. The River fire is now 100 percent contained and the Ranch Fire is 76 percent contained. The Ranch fire is burning North and West and is burning through the Snow Mountain Wilderness at the moment. The smoke from these devastating fires is gray and thick and it blocks the sun sometimes. Luckily for us and not the people of the Central Valley most of the smoke blows to the east due to the prevailing coastal breezes. Here are some views of the Little Lake Valley and one of the Ranch Fire I created at night from our bedroom window last week. God's blessings and safety to those firefighters fighting these fire here and else where, chris #TeamCanon
