A Week of Fire

Return from vacation. Go straight into fire coverage

Five continuous 12 hour days sitting in a hot live truck waiting for wildfire updates. That was my week.

Most of the time I had a up close view of smoke.



There was an opportunity to get to the fire lines



But most of the time, I spent avoiding the Sun because it was still above 100 degrees daily.



And reusing video I shot on the one opportunity at the fire line.



Lucky, I didn't get sick from all the heavy smoke



The wildfire is dying down. The smoke has pretty much faded away. I hope the same goes for the news coverage. I am exhausted.

More photos to come.
