Bad day in Paradise

Post by stevespix »

Had a bad day in Paradise, Ca on Thursday morning our town disappeared from the fire. I lost my entire home and shop and almost my life for staying around to long. Made it out safe but no sawdust time for sometime. I have limited internet and I'll try and keep you all informed and yes pics of destruction will be on the way. Thanks Steve

I cannot but imagine the anguish you are experiencing.

Hope things turn around going forward.

Looks like an almost total wipe out of the town, even got the covered bridge....

Just so much destruction and loss of life from this fire, a really really bad day in Paradise.

I hope your insurance is good and you can get rebuilt as fast as possible. But, then you might consider renaming Paradise to Hell.
