Email to family and friends:
The fire is 70 percent contained.
Full containment expected still on July 3. They give a sort of worst-case prediction, so it's likely to be sooner.
Like today, Weather Service has issued another red flag warning for Friday.
Though it was windy today, it did not impede efforts to extinguish the blaze. However, on the ridge the gusts could reach 60 mph tomorrow and in the 30 mph range at the lake.
Worst injury to date was a broken hand by a firefighter when boulder fell on him.
More people each day are able to return to their homes.
The same mandatory and voluntary evacuation orders are in place. That means we are still in voluntary mode -- we are choosing to stay.
The third town meeting will be Friday night. Officials say the cause of the blaze will be revealed then.
ps .. thanks again for all the good thoughts ... it has been stressful for everyone here and for those worrying about us ... the community has really rallied around each other ... it's inspiring to see humanity be so caring and compassionate
