Our fire, Butte, which began last Wednesday and is still not out, had a different terrain altogether, hills, valleys, creeks, etc. That area was burned in '93(?) during the Calaveras/Fricot City fire, meaning it took almost twenty years to regrow. I looked at Middletown/Anderson Springs area and they are more flat, and they built much more closely together. Thus, their awful losses. I am so sorry. We lost no lives, and a fraction of what Middletown lost. trailbeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06830065132795330618noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6244999628674918029.post-83312625642592387862015-09-15T19:15:24.384-05:002015-09-15T19:15:24.384-05:00Re: monolithic domes.
