Saturday is National Public Lands Day. Free admission to all national parks. Better enjoy them before the project 2025 people cut down all the trees and drill, baby drill. #findyourpark #SequoiaNationalPark

Fire is now 31% contained. That's welcome news this morning. #CoffeePotFire #SequoiaNationalPark

My local photographer friend:

The rocket right at liftoff from Vandenberg, ~200 miles away as the crow flies.

Coffee Pot fire to the left. Three Rivers down below. The fire base camp in Three Rivers is the bright glow. They have to keep it lit up as a safety precaution.

The Milky Way was partially hidden by clouds. #CoffeePotFire #SequoiaNationalPark

So this is about how far away the fire is from my house. #CoffeePotFire #SequoiaNationalPark #ThreeRiversCA

I was assured yesterday by a local Trumper that they would have the fire out by September 30th. When I asked why, she said because it was the end of the fiscal year. Immediately I could smell a conspiracy theory about to be spouted so I said oops, gotta go! Bye! #CoffeePotFire #SequoiaNationalPark

Good news! Now at 25% containment. #CoffeePotFire #SequoiaNationalPark #ThreeRiversCA

Coffee Pot fire is being managed well. 17% containment and about 11,953 acres. Over 1500 fire personnel working on it. #CoffeePotFire #SequoiaNationalPark

Coffee Pot Fire now up to 17% containment. Making progress!
