Anyways guys, I probably will not be making it this time, my grandfather passed away yesterday and I am going down to where he lives to clean out his house and everything. Sorry guys, I will see you all next time.

Alright here are some pictures as promised, couldnt see any flames but these are the best I could get. We are standing on a hill right above the house.
You can see the firemen at the top of this mountain peak, unless the pictures too small...

K i have a couple as well. My dad was very close, less than 1 mile for sure. He was evacuated so I went down there to help.
Sorry about your grandfather.
See you next time.
^This was taken after the flames were put out. I watched the fire come over the hill and then went home to get my camera, after the fire was knocked down.
^This is one of three buildings in Acton (industrial units) my ex and I own and want to sell.
^These are the other two RV storage buildings on the property.
