Douglas County - a photo on Flickriver

Douglas County

            The Pearl Hill fire burned 223,730 acres across Douglas County and it is just one of many in this state alone.  We camped at Sun Lakes, not far from where this was taken (Jameson Lake) and this was pretty much the view the entire time.  That structure is a shop on a couples small piece of land overlooking this once beautiful desert oasis and we were astounded that it survived only to find out that his house is completely gone and it was only thirty feet away.  All of the power lines had burned down and so there was no water to fight the incoming blaze and the fd came and told them they had five minutes to pack their lifetime of belongings because there is only one way out of there and they weren't going to risk lives to save one house.

for reference the shot in comments was taken from behind me, that bush is certainly gone now...
