His truck went off the road on the Oakville Grade (a VERY winding road) at 6:45 a.m. He was probably exhausted from fighting the fires there. Such a tragic loss. RIP "Taco", Garrett Paiz. I remember him well...He was only 38 years old.trav4adventureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03411656522344925200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6277742182540823151.post-10503089598425022192017-10-19T12:43:27.320-07:002017-10-19T12:43:27.320-07:00They do present some nice photo ops, but such a sa...They do present some nice photo ops, but such a sad and terrible reality for us out here in fire country.<br />We've seen smoke from 6 fires this season. The two you mention in this post, two within a couple of miles from us, and two that were less than a mile, and we could see the flames. Really scary stuff. I know that many fires are created naturally, but the ones that are the result of arson, but make me sick. It's time to make the penalties much for severe.<br />Some of these photos are spectacular Pete!Pat Tilletthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17699973774273291205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6277742182540823151.post-84153768500170304342017-10-15T10:33:25.942-07:002017-10-15T10:33:25.942-07:00Spectacular photos, but very scary.
