The Aftermath

The destruction left in the wake of the firestorm last week is very clear as you drive along the 57 freeway through the Brea Pass and on the hills of the Carbon Canyon area of Brea, which is still closed to residents only. The stench of the fire still smells fresh as was the resulting ash.

    Thanks guys. As far as I know, i think all of the fires are out. Though from the smell you would think there is still something going on.

    Thanks T&S.; It sort of reminded me of a post-apocalyptic landscape.
