Black Forest Fire Strike Team in Action

This is fascinating.  I didn't know firefighters will wait for the fire to come to them; makes sense after watching the video.  They are so calm and business like as they go about their job.  Real Pros!

  2. I, too, was surprised by the focus on saving structures over simply controlling the spread of the fire. I am so impressed by the firefighters.

  3. I just dropped over from Feral Woman's blog and wanted to tell you after reading Dreamings fire update blogs and your older posts that I am so happy you both are OK and the fires are somewhat contained. I have no idea how this feels but I do remember talking to Feral and feel the pain she was going through. It is good that you have friends and family to get you through and I am sending m prayers to you and your family. Take care. B
