pre-arrival video

shed fire spreads to house and video

lady with camera freaking out

looks more like vfd rigs than calfire - those engines are older and
different than calfire rigs

almost killed by retardant drop

homeowner was doing good work with garden hose before he dropped it

FD got there just in time

iirc lake county has multi FDs and VFDs - an a couple of the FDs are
staffed 24/7 by CalFire personnel on contract
