Bear Valley, CA...The Donnell Fire area is approximately 36,288 acres and continues to burn on the eastern perimeter into and within the Carson-Iceburg Wilderness. Yesterday the fire continued to slowly burn through mixed conifer, timber understory and the forest floor with very short range spotting into islands of available fuels. The fire burned in a mosaic, patchy pattern versus a continuous flaming front.

Inside Out Designs is Here to Help Your Interior Design Dreams Come True
Posted by: thepinetree on 08/28/2018 10:09 AM
Sonora, CA...I have a passion for design and home improvement, and am committed to providing quality design services at prices that suit the budget of my clients. I don’t have an unlimited budget for my house, and suspect you don’t either, so my goal is to design your home just as I have my own ~ getting the maximum results, at the best possible price! Having a General Contractor and Master Cabinet Maker for a father, I grew up around design and construction. I learned many skills from him over the years, and something was always being remodeled in our house! I worked in high-tech through the 1980’s, but then decided to switch gears and work in the family business when I wanted to have my second child. Working side-by-side with my father, I was the Office Manager in his business for 10 years, but also gained extensive knowledge of cabinetry design, construction, materials and hardware. At that time, I was also remodeling my first home (room by room), and was bitten by the design bug, so headed back to school to receive an Interior Design Certificate from U.C. Santa Cruz.

Firefighters Continue to Make Progress on Donnell Fire
Posted by: thepinetree on 08/27/2018 03:11 PM
Pinecrest, CA...The fire has increased in size to 35,684 acres and continues to burn on the eastern perimeter into the Carson-Iceberg Wilderness. There is a potential for spot fires to the east as southwest winds are expected today. Firefighters are focusing on building and strengthening fire lines on this eastern edge. This portion of the fire is in remote, inaccessible country and crews are spiking out to work in these areas. The main fire camp has moved to Bear Valley and will be supporting the crews. The satellite camp in Kennedy Meadows remains to support firefighters working on the southeast portion of the fire area. Firefighters are also looking at the Highland Lakes area to the north for contingency planning as the fire could make a run up the Arnot drainage that leads to that area.
