WINNER

22 6 #1. Sami Street

12:03 a.m.: Yesterday. This was the beautiful Trinity County Mountains. Today, it was burnt down. Had mandatory evacuations from our cabin in Mad River with fires two miles away. Drove through Highway 36 and looking back at the ridge realizing how close the fires were. Its in Mother Nature's hands now but pray for those firefighters, wild animals, our cabin, and everyone else's homes and lives that will be affected by these 60+ lightening fires :/ #TrinityCounty #Wildfires #CaliforniaDrought #HumboldtCounty #MadRiver #PrayForFirefighters
