You're welcome. It's pretty tough to stop a fire with 100' flame lengths, driven by wind.

Cannot even fathom seeing 100 foot flames into the air. We moved to the area right after the Panoramic fire and I can remember the housing office at Norton AFB now SB International airport showing pictures of the fire and telling incoming people where not to buy or rent. They also explained that once the fire turns into a firestorm, they are hard to stop because the fire generates its own wind.

That's how we ended up in Yucaipa -- ground was pretty safe from earthquakes and the fires usually were in the surrounding mountains but not in Yucaipa!
