He lives in town and while its under a mandatory evacuation order, hes not going to leave. Im prepared to stay here and defend my house from fire. Im prepared to spray down any embers, put out anything i can and leave if i have to say. Reporter cal fire says the walbridge fire, part of the lnu lightning complex, is their biggest worry tonight. Its already scorched some houses in the hills of healdsburg. Firefighters are doing all they can to keep it from getting to more Populated Areas and destroying more homes. Right now the concern is keeping it out of the guerneville area, but also keeping it from progressing toward hacienda. Reporter helicopters have been dropping into the Russian River and dropping water on the fire all afternoon. Meanwhile, new evacuation orders have been issued. Tonight hundreds are praying their homes will survive. Nd the town gets saved. Reporter again, there are new mandatory evacuation orders in this area.

Reporter as been very depressing around here. Im in felton, which is like many other towns in these mountain communities, almost completely deserted today. I drove around Boulder Creek yesterday and one of the neighborhoods i went through around fallen leaf drive is gone today. Driving through the Santa Cruz Mountains today, it was eerie to see how many spot fires caused by floating embers are popping up. Firefighters from numerous agencies already have their hands full with the relentless flames that have burned up property from San Mateo County to the Santa Cruz Mountains, including here in Boulder Creek. They just put three more engines up there. Its really just keeping flareups from happening again. You know, its really out of our hands. Reporter eric sharping is n to the roof to protect his home, his neighbors and hopefully help the firefighters. My attitude is look out for my neighbors and do everything i can within my power to make this not a place where they need to do work. Reporter the bay area and its surro have seen far too many of these types of images the past few years and now the past few days, which is why some homeowners arent leaving until they absolutely have bndevastated and lost eve they have had.
