A brief respite
I am suffering information overload today as I imagine many of you are, so instead of a heavy post I thought I’d share only the inspiring, beautiful or humorous I came across.
Be well, Sonoma County. Thank you, Firefighters.

Supertanker does a drop to the southeast of Lake Sonoma. The fire’s skunking around in the hills to the west of me, generally moving east but the wind seems variable. #WalbridgeFire
Images from the #wallbridgefire yesterday as the fire burns in record fuels and was being pushed by strong winds. The town of Guernville is of major concern today. #LNULightningComplex

Apologies to those who heard my son burst in screaming during my noon live shot on @GavinNewsom & #wildfires, completely ignoring the red DON’T EVEN KNOCK sign the kids made for when I’m on the air. #WorkingFromHome #pandemiclife
After getting stuck on Cloud Ridge Rd today from a fallen tree in #WalbridgeFire these lovely firefighters from Healdsburg helped me get down another way. 🙏🏼💜Thank you!! @NorthBayNews @HealdsburgFire
