"Governor Brown declared State of Emergency due to the Carr fire near Redding, CA"....

Caution sign on I-5:




As we get closer, we can see the heavy smoke blanketing the sky:




The fire is about 10 miles away from I-5 and we can still see the flames burning hard:

I read it and my heart goes out to them. 

Grandpa left for 15 minutes only.  He came back to help but because if road blockage, he couldn't get through.  His grandkids were on the cell Fon line with him when they said I love you towards one another.  Then the Fon went silent.  They perished and old guy wish he would die with them that tragic day.
