Early on in the fire, there were rumors that most of the buildings at the intersection of Shoup and Black Forest Roads had been lost. This little cross-roads community is where the the Festival was held on Saturday. I took this photo of part of the burn area from the edge of the Festival grounds. If you were to stand in the middle of the intersection and turn 360 degrees, you could see burned areas in every direction. It was amazing that the firefighters were able to save the buildings, though as my friend points out, the owners of the buildings had done a good job of fire mitigation between clearing out undergrowth and surrounding the areas with open space and parking lots.
