One of our friend's vineyards burned down in Santa Rosa, California

They sent out a group email around the country and around the world to all their friends. My wife went to private school with this man in Santa Barbara which is how we know them now. He has a wine label and is famous for making fully organic wines. When you drink his organic wines there is never any kind of hangover at all because most of that is from the chemicals of various kinds that wind up in inorganic wines.

So, we are sorry to hear about his vineyards burning down because it will take 6 years to replant and recondition the soils because ash ruins  grape growing soils around the world. Only Redwoods do good in burnt areas after fires and a few other plants.

I'm amazed by the statement (but I've also seen this myself growing up in Glendale in the 1950s and 1960s of "one football field being consumed every 3 seconds because of the winds.

I think when this is over the bodies of those extra people who died won't be found just like in Oakland, in the 1990s only the melted gun in the pavement of the policeman and the group he was trying to save was found because they all burned turned to ash and then blew away in the winds then too.

When you have a football field size area burning everything 3 seconds bodies of people caught who cannot run 50 or 60 miles per hour (without a car or motorcycle) will turn to ash and blow away with nothing found.
