Sand Fire Update

With the Sand Fire no longer spreading here's a perspective of the area that was burned relative to Folsom.     Pretty close!   But also much different terrain as it is much more mountainous.  51 structures including 13 homes were ultimately burned by the fire and at its peak there were nearly 2,000 firefighters working it.  

The "Sand" Fire

A fire broke out late Friday afternoon in Amador county in almost the exact location we were visiting (wine tasting with friends) earlier that day.   It quickly grew into a huge plume as photographed with my new Christmas/Birthday lens!   A wide-angle.!

The plume and everything to the left is smoke!
