Yes, this is me, your humble narator and complete dumbass (in a coco-puff
shirt too). I had just finished bleaching my head when we saw the hill
was on fire.
|
 |
The fire was actually coming up to where the firemen were stationed.
I was trying to get one more a picture when suddenly...
|
 |
...a plane came directly overhead and started dumping red fire retardant
directly where I was standing (I looked up and saw the wall coming).
My wife and I ran like hell and barely made it out of the way of this
red spray.... but the two people next to us weren't as lucky (hard to see in this
reduced image... but half of their body is covered in red droplets).

Walking back down we had a great view of the city itself. You can see the
smoke blowing down over the valley.

And another shot, looking south.
