After posting his story on the first day of the Gap Fire at 2:20am, Ray Ford rose early on day two to tag along with local and state crews — to get some 6 am shots.
The only folks working harder than Ray are those putting shovels, saws, pulauskis, hoses, water, and retardant to good use, the crews and support staff fighting on our behalf.
