Green Valley Lake appears to be completely surrounded by fire, this is very scary. i am sure it will be difficult to keep it from completely over running the town. i wish somone would drop fire retardent on the whole place and just give us some peace of mind, arrrrgghhhh!!! just one dc10 drop please! i am going to give some links for anyone interested in the blow by blow, it can be scary and reassuring at the same time, rollercoaster ride for sure.
rim of the world
there are google groups where you can read about home owners and apparently some people who are still up there reporting on things as they see it.
not sure if i mentioned this recently, but camp wintaka is on green valley lake road, that area appears to be on fire as is camp cedar crest and a gorgeous calvery chapel camp (huge log cabins, like the kind of camp you would expect to see in the movies).
we need some rain dancers out there, we need rain! i dont see any way to stop this fire storm with the limited resources we have.
ok, off to try and have a normal day.
Where did you get the info on cedar crest?! IS IT 100 % TRUE!
ReplyDeleteLeslie,
ReplyDeleteWe are just sick to think about this awful fire and are sending thoughts and prayers up for your wonderful retreat in GVL. From what I can gather reading the incident reports, it looks promising for both your cabin and Camp Wintaka. I saw a posting for Camp Pondo that said Camp Wintaka in parenthases, and as of 3pm today it was still ok. You may want to check on the Pondo website as they are posting updates frequently. http://www.pondo.org/
There's still hope, my friend.
