Sadly, looking at the map information and the ELR users map, his home was located in the center of the ā€œCamp Fireā€. Iā€™m just hoping he circles around goes back to his home and it is all still there unscathed.


The Camp Fire began Thursday morning and quickly wiped out the entire town of Paradise. It has spread to 109,000 acres, leaving at least 23 people dead and more than 6,400 homes destroyed so far. Firefighters reported that it was 25 percent contained as of Sunday morning as they braced for strong, dry winds from the northeast through the rest of the day.
