00:11:12,755 --> 00:11:14,632
Ridgeview High School is gone.
177
00:11:19,804 --> 00:11:21,556
WOODY:
I sobered up in 1984.
178
00:11:21,556 --> 00:11:24,559
I became an elected
official in 2004,
179
00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:26,811
then I became the mayor.
180
00:11:26,811 --> 00:11:29,606
I went from being the town drunk
to being the town mayor.
181
00:11:32,859 --> 00:11:35,028
WOODY:
And I met my wife here.
182
00:11:35,028 --> 00:11:38,823
This is a place where
everything came together for me.
183
00:11:38,823 --> 00:11:41,492
And within a day, it was gone.
184
00:11:47,624 --> 00:11:50,043
You know, I'm
grateful that I'm alive,
185
00:11:51,628 --> 00:11:54,547
but I'm 74 years old.
186
00:11:54,547 --> 00:11:57,008
Change is difficult.
187
00:11:57,008 --> 00:11:58,801
I'm going to die here.
188
00:11:58,801 --> 00:12:00,428
You know, not in Chico.
189
00:12:00,428 --> 00:12:04,057
I'm not going to go back
down to the Bay Area where
I was raised.
190
00:12:04,057 --> 00:12:05,683
This is my home.
191
00:12:08,686 --> 00:12:11,731
RICK:
Oh, look at this.
This is what's so crazy.
192
00:12:12,065 --> 00:12:14,984
All this burnt,
these homes are here.
193
00:12:14,984 --> 00:12:17,487
How crazy is this?
194
00:12:20,698 --> 00:12:22,575
RICK: Yeah.
195
00:12:23,117 --> 00:12:24,744
WOODY: See that?
196
00:12:24,744 --> 00:12:27,038
RICK:
He's stuck here, huh?
Is that a real deer?
197
00:12:27,038 --> 00:12:28,623
WOODY: Yeah,
that's a real deer.
198
00:12:28,623 --> 00:12:29,874
Hey, buddy.
199
00:12:29,874 --> 00:12:31,793
(whistles).
200
00:12:43,263 --> 00:12:45,807
(police radio chatter).
201
00:12:45,807 --> 00:12:48,685
MATT: Things have changed,
indefinitely.
202
00:12:52,563 --> 00:12:55,817
Just everything is...
203
00:12:55,817 --> 00:12:58,611
Decimated.
204
00:13:03,074 --> 00:13:06,661
My wife and I,
we loved living here.
205
00:13:06,661 --> 00:13:09,414
And my boys, they
were born in Paradise.
206
00:13:09,414 --> 00:13:12,083
Their whole
world was Paradise.
207
00:13:12,083 --> 00:13:14,335
That is all they ever knew.
208
00:13:15,503 --> 00:13:18,464
Where we lived can't
really be replaced.
209
00:13:25,221 --> 00:13:28,891
When you realized that
everything was burning,
210
00:13:28,891 --> 00:13:31,060
you just basically,
kind of come to terms with,
211
00:13:31,060 --> 00:13:33,438
there's a lot of things
that could go wrong.
212
00:13:35,690 --> 00:13:37,734
During the evacuations,
213
00:13:37,734 --> 00:13:40,111
there was a gentleman who
came up to me and he said,
214
00:13:40,111 --> 00:13:43,072
“My family is trying
to get out of town going
down Circle Drive.”
215
00:13:43,072 --> 00:13:45,033
And I was like,
216
00:13:45,033 --> 00:13:47,660
“They need to
not go that way.”
217
00:13:47,660 --> 00:13:50,288
But there was no cell service.
218
00:13:53,916 --> 00:13:56,878
In the morning, I went down
there and sure enough did find
219
00:13:56,878 --> 00:14:02,050
a, uh, vehicle that
had burned and looked for
220
00:14:02,050 --> 00:14:04,552
any remains that may
have been around there,
221
00:14:04,552 --> 00:14:07,847
but didn't find anything.
222
00:14:08,931 --> 00:14:12,060
A little bit later
I saw a lady.
223
00:14:12,060 --> 00:14:17,648
She talked about going
down Circle Drive and her
vehicle catching on fire,
224
00:14:17,648 --> 00:14:19,567
and her son being there
and getting her out of there.
225
00:14:19,567 --> 00:14:21,944
And she had burns up her arms.
226
00:14:21,944 --> 00:14:24,697
And, uh, I knew
it was her, so.
227
00:14:28,659 --> 00:14:30,161
I went and gave her a hug,
228
00:14:30,161 --> 00:14:32,872
because I had been
looking for her body.
229
00:14:32,872 --> 00:14:34,373
So...
230
00:14:36,667 --> 00:14:38,044
I'm sorry.
231
00:14:47,970 --> 00:14:50,056
WOMAN (over radio):We've been getting a lotof phone calls and emails
232
00:14:50,056 --> 00:14:52,016
about people whoare still missing.
233
00:14:52,016 --> 00:14:54,477
MAN (over radio): Nearly1,300 still unaccounted for.
234
00:14:54,477 --> 00:14:56,604
The search for the missinghappening in shelters.
235
00:14:56,604 --> 00:14:59,315
KORY (over TV): It ismy sad duty to report,
236
00:14:59,315 --> 00:15:02,819
we now can confirm atotal of 9 fatalities.
237
00:15:02,819 --> 00:15:04,529
WOMAN (over TV): We'relearning that the death toll
238
00:15:04,529 --> 00:15:07,198
now stands at staggering 23.
239
00:15:07,198 --> 00:15:10,576
MAN (over TV):48 people are nowconfirmed dead in the states...
240
00:15:10,576 --> 00:15:13,871
WOMAN (over radio): The firekilled at last 85 people and
241
00:15:13,871 --> 00:15:16,082
destroyed more than18,000 structures,
242
00:15:16,082 --> 00:15:18,876
including homesand businesses.
243
00:15:19,252 --> 00:15:21,504
WOMAN:
The whole town is gone.
244
00:15:21,504 --> 00:15:25,007
I, I still don't know
how to process that.
245
00:15:29,554 --> 00:15:32,181
WOMAN: We were pretty sure
our house burned down.
246
00:15:32,181 --> 00:15:33,975
And this is basically
what we got.
247
00:15:45,444 --> 00:15:47,905
GIRL: So, yeah,
this is our area.
248
00:15:48,573 --> 00:15:50,616
This is, um, our beds.
249
00:15:50,616 --> 00:15:52,994
It's not much, but
we have what we have.
250
00:15:53,786 --> 00:15:55,663
So...
251
00:15:58,040 --> 00:15:59,959
WOMAN: How's that, good?
252
00:15:59,959 --> 00:16:02,086
FRANK:
After they come here,
people think that they're
253
00:16:02,086 --> 00:16:04,046
going to have their house
back the way, it was,
254
00:16:04,046 --> 00:16:06,090
they're going to have their
furniture back the way it was,
255
00:16:06,090 --> 00:16:09,051
that they're going to have
life before fire and they're
256
00:16:09,051 --> 00:16:10,011
not going to.
257
00:16:10,011 --> 00:16:12,680
VOLUNTEER (over speaker): 060.
258
00:16:14,223 --> 00:16:16,517
BROWN: We are in the
midst of a catastrophe.
259
00:16:16,517 --> 00:16:20,021
The state of California, uh,
will do everything we can.
260
00:16:20,021 --> 00:16:21,564
NEWSOM: And we
need to, I think,
261
00:16:21,564 --> 00:16:23,149
make sure we are prepared.
262
00:16:23,149 --> 00:16:25,234
TRUMP: But what,
what we just saw,
we just left Pleasure.
263
00:16:25,234 --> 00:16:28,112
MAN: Paradise.
TRUMP: Or Paradise.
264
00:16:28,112 --> 00:16:31,157
And what we just saw at,
at Paradise is just, you know,
265
00:16:31,157 --> 00:16:33,326
it's just not acceptable.
266
00:16:33,326 --> 00:16:36,495
WOMAN: There's been
such an outpouring of help and
support and food,
267
00:16:36,495 --> 00:16:39,749
people bringing
coats and umbrellas.
268
00:16:40,416 --> 00:16:42,919
And, and all those
things are so helpful.
269
00:16:42,919 --> 00:16:46,172
But at the end of the day,
I have nowhere to go.
270
00:16:47,882 --> 00:16:49,342
MAN: As hard as it to say,
271
00:16:49,342 --> 00:16:51,969
I don't see the
town coming back.
272
00:16:51,969 --> 00:16:53,971
I just don't.
273
00:17:00,144 --> 00:17:03,272
MARCUS: We have two bags worth
of my children's clothes,
274
00:17:03,272 --> 00:17:05,316
that were in their dressers.
275
00:17:05,316 --> 00:17:07,443
And the clothes that
are on our back.
276
00:17:07,443 --> 00:17:09,820
And we got in our
car and we left.
277
00:17:16,786 --> 00:17:18,162
It's crazy.
278
00:17:18,162 --> 00:17:21,082
I never thought I would be a
part of a, a natural disaster.
279
00:17:21,082 --> 00:17:24,001
And I was so hurt and sad for
the people like in New Orleans
280
00:17:24,001 --> 00:17:27,004
on the Hurricane Katrina,
but it doesn't really hit you
281
00:17:27,004 --> 00:17:30,633
until you actually affects
you and hits your backyard.
282
00:17:31,509 --> 00:17:33,386
My wife's been in
Paradise all her life.
283
00:17:33,386 --> 00:17:36,639
Her parents has been up there
since they were children.
284
00:17:36,639 --> 00:17:39,350
Our families were affected
by the situation, too.
285
00:17:40,309 --> 00:17:43,271
We don't have grandmas and
grandpas that we can go to.
286
00:17:45,940 --> 00:17:48,484
KRYSTLE: I, honestly, I want
to get the hell out of here,
287
00:17:48,484 --> 00:17:51,070
but we have nowhere to go.
288
00:17:51,070 --> 00:17:54,323
I'm getting really
anxious to want to know
what's still standing.
289
00:18:00,371 --> 00:18:02,290
MAN (over radio):Paradise PoliceChief announced that
290
00:18:02,290 --> 00:18:04,333
plans would begin forthe residents to reenter
291
00:18:04,333 --> 00:18:06,127
into the town of Paradise.
292
00:18:06,127 --> 00:18:07,587
WOMAN (over radio):For many people,
293
00:18:07,587 --> 00:18:09,714
it's been more than30 days since they last saw
294
00:18:09,714 --> 00:18:12,133
their homes standingin the city of Paradise.
295
00:18:27,940 --> 00:18:29,942
(metal clang)
296
00:18:37,199 --> 00:18:38,200
MATT: Have you
been up here yet?
297
00:18:38,200 --> 00:18:40,369
ANNA: No, this
is my first time.
298
00:18:40,369 --> 00:18:42,622
MATT: I lost my house,
too and I'll tell you what,
299
00:18:42,622 --> 00:18:43,873
it's not easy.
300
00:18:43,873 --> 00:18:45,416
ANNA: No, it's not.
But we're alive.
301
00:18:45,416 --> 00:18:46,667
MATT: Yeah, we are.
302
00:18:46,667 --> 00:18:48,336
And what, what's important,
we still have it, right?
303
00:18:48,336 --> 00:18:50,087
ANNA: Yeah.
304
00:19:08,397 --> 00:19:10,608
MICHELLE: Back there,
this is all ours,
305
00:19:10,608 --> 00:19:12,443
and you can see the
buildings that burnt.
306
00:19:12,985 --> 00:19:15,279
And that's where
all the buses burnt.
307
00:19:15,279 --> 00:19:16,322
MAN:
School garden over here.
308
00:19:16,322 --> 00:19:18,324
MICHELLE:
Yeah, all of our garden.
309
00:19:21,410 --> 00:19:25,373
In our district we
have nine schools.
310
00:19:25,373 --> 00:19:28,292
And eight of the
nine are damaged.
311
00:19:28,292 --> 00:19:30,336
And four are destroyed.
312
00:19:31,921 --> 00:19:33,964
That was the fifth grade wing.
313
00:19:35,257 --> 00:19:36,884
MICHELLE:
All the planning we've done,
314
00:19:36,884 --> 00:19:39,261
still we never thought
it would be this bad.
315
00:19:40,429 --> 00:19:41,764
Yep.
316
00:19:41,764 --> 00:19:43,474
(sighs).
317
00:19:43,474 --> 00:19:45,518
Okay, it's so hard to
walk down here.
318
00:19:45,518 --> 00:19:48,312
Don't touch any of this,
it's asbestos.
319
00:19:49,438 --> 00:19:51,357
(sighs).
320
00:19:52,942 --> 00:19:56,028
If the school doesn't go back,
there will be no town.
321
00:19:58,114 --> 00:20:02,159
And part of the problem
is‐is, there's nobody up here
322
00:20:02,159 --> 00:20:04,370
to come back to.
323
00:20:15,423 --> 00:20:17,007
BRANDON: A little sun that
I made for my mom when,
324
00:20:17,007 --> 00:20:18,592
I think, I was in preschool.
325
00:20:18,592 --> 00:20:20,344
(laughs).
326
00:20:20,344 --> 00:20:22,888
ZACH: This is his
transmission, so made of,
327
00:20:23,222 --> 00:20:25,015
like, a really
low‐grade aluminum.
328
00:20:25,015 --> 00:20:26,392
Some, just as
light as it can be.
329
00:20:26,392 --> 00:20:29,061
It's pieces of gravel.
330
00:20:29,061 --> 00:20:32,148
I mean, it really just goes
to show how hot the fire was.
331
00:20:32,148 --> 00:20:33,274
Isn't that your bed‐frame?
332
00:20:33,274 --> 00:20:34,984
BRANDON:
Yeah, that's my bed‐frame.
333
00:20:34,984 --> 00:20:36,819
That's my old gas tank.
334
00:20:36,819 --> 00:20:39,447
ZACH: I mean it's just
piecing stuff back together.
335
00:20:39,447 --> 00:20:40,990
Trying to figure out like,
what happened up here.
336
00:20:40,990 --> 00:20:42,908
If I still had a house,
if they still had a house,
you know.
337
00:20:42,908 --> 00:20:44,869
BRANDON: No, I already knew.
ZACH: Yeah, so...
338
00:20:44,869 --> 00:20:46,579
BRANDON: As soon as I
left my house, I was like,
339
00:20:46,579 --> 00:20:48,122
“I'm not coming back to this.”
340
00:20:48,122 --> 00:20:49,415
MASON:
I watched mine burn.
341
00:20:49,415 --> 00:20:50,666
BRANDON:
Even though I lost my house,
342
00:20:50,666 --> 00:20:53,502
I have all the stuff that
survived, all the memories,
343
00:20:53,502 --> 00:20:57,173
because I wasn't able to
find my parent's wedding album,
344
00:20:57,173 --> 00:20:59,467
I found all of my baby
pictures and my brother,
345
00:20:59,467 --> 00:21:01,135
for my mom.
346
00:21:01,135 --> 00:21:04,138
Some one‐of‐a‐kind pictures
that don't exist anywhere.
347
00:21:04,138 --> 00:21:07,433
I left almost way too late.
348
00:21:07,433 --> 00:21:10,478
I'd say about ten
minutes later,
349
00:21:10,478 --> 00:21:12,313
the fire would
have been right there,
350
00:21:12,313 --> 00:21:13,856
just down the street,
351
00:21:13,856 --> 00:21:16,066
and I might not have
been able to get out.
352
00:21:18,569 --> 00:21:20,738
BRANDON:
I was running back and
forth through the house
353
00:21:20,738 --> 00:21:23,365
to grab everything
that I possibly could.
354
00:21:24,283 --> 00:21:27,203
(explosions)
355
00:21:28,245 --> 00:21:31,999
As the propane tanks were
just getting louder and louder.
356
00:21:31,999 --> 00:21:34,251
That's when we
knew we had to go.
357
00:21:36,378 --> 00:21:39,215
BRANDON:
I drove out of the fire
with almost no gas,
358
00:21:39,215 --> 00:21:41,592
I had my dog up in front and
359
00:21:41,592 --> 00:21:43,427
I saw the
blacked‐out sky with,
360
00:21:43,427 --> 00:21:45,721
like, the red on the horizon.
361
00:21:48,432 --> 00:21:53,270
This entire area
was on fire and no one
could really do anything.
362
00:22:01,904 --> 00:22:05,908
JOHN:
The, the reality is‐is
that it was November 8th and
363
00:22:05,908 --> 00:22:09,411
we hadn't had any kind
of significant rain.
364
00:22:09,662 --> 00:22:12,248
It had always rained before
trick or treating, right?
365
00:22:12,248 --> 00:22:14,291
SEAN: Right. Right.
JOHN: You know what I mean?
366
00:22:14,291 --> 00:22:16,085
And now, and now we're in
these patterns here where we
367
00:22:16,085 --> 00:22:18,420
don't see rain until,
you know, end of November.
368
00:22:18,420 --> 00:22:21,048
SEAN: That morning,
the wind cranked up.
369
00:22:21,048 --> 00:22:23,217
And you know, you're
kind of waiting, like,
370
00:22:23,217 --> 00:22:25,052
what's coming next?
371
00:22:25,052 --> 00:22:28,430
JOHN:
In this particular case,
it was a fire eight miles away,
372
00:22:28,430 --> 00:22:32,643
throwing up a column
full of embers and ash.
373
00:22:33,185 --> 00:22:36,939
SEAN:
The darkest, blackest
column of smoke I've ever seen.
374
00:22:36,939 --> 00:22:39,316
JOHN:
And then a
40‐mile‐an‐hour wind taking
375
00:22:39,316 --> 00:22:41,694
that over the top of Paradise
in perfect alignment,
376
00:22:41,694 --> 00:22:44,238
and dropping it on
the town of Paradise.
377
00:22:44,780 --> 00:22:47,241
And so it really was
the perfect storm.
378
00:22:49,869 --> 00:22:54,832
FIREFIGHTER:
We lost a hundred and
some thousand acres of land.
379
00:22:54,832 --> 00:22:58,294
FIREFIGHTER 2:
There was multiple fires burning
for at least a week?
380
00:22:58,794 --> 00:23:00,546
Probably more.
381
00:23:01,964 --> 00:23:03,799
ALEJANDRO:
We just tried to save
what we could save.
382
00:23:03,799 --> 00:23:05,593
And help people
along that way.
383
00:23:05,593 --> 00:23:08,345
That's about all we could do.
384
00:23:11,724 --> 00:23:15,102
SEAN: It didn't
matter if we had 1,000 fire
engines lined up
385
00:23:15,102 --> 00:23:16,562
on the ridge that day.
386
00:23:16,562 --> 00:23:18,147
This was going to happen.
387
00:23:18,147 --> 00:23:20,774
Everything lined up perfectly
that day for this to happen.
388
00:23:22,443 --> 00:23:23,861
KEN:
Things are changing.
389
00:23:23,861 --> 00:23:26,155
Firefighters are living
climate change, they're,
390
00:23:26,155 --> 00:23:29,241
it's staring them in
the face every day.
391
00:23:30,117 --> 00:23:32,202
It's not that California
hasn't had bad fires and
392
00:23:32,202 --> 00:23:36,916
horrible conditions over time,
but they're lasting longer and
393
00:23:36,916 --> 00:23:38,584
they're becoming more extreme.
394
00:23:40,419 --> 00:23:42,546
Going into the
Camp Fire in Paradise,
395
00:23:42,546 --> 00:23:46,008
we had 5 years of a drought
that we hadn't recovered from.
396
00:23:47,593 --> 00:23:50,387
KEN: When you
see temperatures increase,
397
00:23:50,387 --> 00:23:53,474
literally one degree
in temperature change,
398
00:23:53,474 --> 00:23:55,142
changes what's growing
on the landscape,
399
00:23:55,142 --> 00:23:57,436
or what isn't growing.
400
00:24:02,524 --> 00:24:05,152
WOMAN (over phone):November 8th, 2018
401
00:24:05,152 --> 00:24:07,988
from Pacific Gas& Electric Company.
402
00:24:07,988 --> 00:24:10,282
High fire dangerare forecasted in...
403
00:24:10,282 --> 00:24:13,535
MIKE: PG&E had alerted the
Paradise area the power would
404
00:24:13,535 --> 00:24:15,955
be shut off as a
preventative thing.
405
00:24:17,206 --> 00:24:19,959
It was not.
And then we had a fire.
406
00:24:21,293 --> 00:24:23,712
WOMAN (over TV): We haveconfirmed PG&E experienced a
407
00:24:23,712 --> 00:24:26,924
problem minutes beforethe blaze broke out.
408
00:24:26,924 --> 00:24:29,510
An electrical transmissionline near the site of the
409
00:24:29,510 --> 00:24:31,887
massive fire wascausing sparks.
410
00:24:33,347 --> 00:24:37,601
MIKE: And it's no
real secret that the equipment
411
00:24:37,601 --> 00:24:41,772
we're looking at was built,
I believe it was 1921.
412
00:24:47,403 --> 00:24:50,072
WOODY: I want to write a
formal letter to the PG&E
413
00:24:50,072 --> 00:24:51,824
board of directors.
414
00:24:51,824 --> 00:24:54,451
I should make these into
thank you cards and make one
415
00:24:54,451 --> 00:24:56,161
for each one of them.
416
00:24:56,495 --> 00:25:00,374
I just wanted to show them
and say, hey, here's my house.
417
00:25:00,749 --> 00:25:02,918
That's my home on
November 10th, you know?
418
00:25:02,918 --> 00:25:04,920
Where are you
sleeping tonight?
419
00:25:05,754 --> 00:25:08,007
REPORTER: If somebody from
PG&E was over my shoulder,
420
00:25:08,007 --> 00:25:10,300
what is it that you would
want to say to them?
421
00:25:10,300 --> 00:25:12,011
KAYLA: I was born in Paradise.
422
00:25:12,011 --> 00:25:13,220
I have lived there
my whole life.
423
00:25:13,220 --> 00:25:15,055
So that's a really big deal.
424
00:25:15,055 --> 00:25:17,850
But I want them to know
really how hard it is.
425
00:25:18,267 --> 00:25:20,019
It's not just that
I lost my house.
426
00:25:20,019 --> 00:25:23,605
It's not that I lost my
memories or anything like that.
427
00:25:24,314 --> 00:25:26,525
It's that they, it was
my entire way of life.
428
00:25:27,276 --> 00:25:29,028
Not just a portion of it.
429
00:25:29,028 --> 00:25:32,072
It was literally every
single moment of my life and
430
00:25:32,072 --> 00:25:35,701
how I did stuff and
how my daughter did stuff
that is completely gone.
431
00:25:38,120 --> 00:25:40,247
After the fire, I went back
and digging through our place.
432
00:25:42,332 --> 00:25:44,918
This is all the stuff
that survived the fire.
433
00:25:44,918 --> 00:25:47,254
My John Wayne shot glass,
434
00:25:47,254 --> 00:25:51,425
I probably had 70 different
unique shot glasses.
435
00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:53,635
And only one survived,
and it was John Wayne,
436
00:25:53,635 --> 00:25:54,887
which makes me happy,
437
00:25:54,887 --> 00:25:56,472
because I just think
that he should have
438
00:25:56,472 --> 00:25:58,599
been the one to survive.
439
00:26:01,852 --> 00:26:04,563
I miss my family.
440
00:26:04,563 --> 00:26:07,107
And I miss my home.
441
00:26:12,780 --> 00:26:16,200
My entire family
lived in Paradise.
442
00:26:16,492 --> 00:26:19,578
34 people.
443
00:26:19,578 --> 00:26:21,663
Aunts, uncles, cousins.
444
00:26:21,663 --> 00:26:24,416
Brothers, mom,
dad, grandparents.
445
00:26:24,958 --> 00:26:28,045
Every single one of
them lost their home.
446
00:26:29,588 --> 00:26:32,257
We rented and we did not
have renter's insurance.
447
00:26:34,051 --> 00:26:37,262
There's no rental anywhere
because all of Butte County
448
00:26:37,262 --> 00:26:38,972
was filled right after the fire.
449
00:26:40,099 --> 00:26:41,892
JUSTIN: I knew I had
to get back to work,
450
00:26:41,892 --> 00:26:45,479
and so a trailer seemed like it
was going to be the best option.
451
00:26:45,479 --> 00:26:48,524
So I just went and
took out a loan.
452
00:26:48,524 --> 00:26:51,860
It's more expensive for
me to live in this tiny box
453
00:26:51,860 --> 00:26:54,238
than it was for me to live in
a two‐bedroom, two‐bath house.
454
00:26:57,908 --> 00:26:59,284
I'm done with California.
455
00:26:59,284 --> 00:27:01,328
If it wasn't for
Kayla and her family,
456
00:27:01,328 --> 00:27:03,580
we'd probably be gone.
457
00:27:13,423 --> 00:27:15,801
MAN: There's temporary
facilities in Texas and Mexico.
458
00:27:16,718 --> 00:27:18,512
JAMES: Right.
People need a place to live.
459
00:27:19,555 --> 00:27:22,391
And probably there will be a
significant number of people
460
00:27:22,391 --> 00:27:24,893
who don't rebuild in Paradise.
461
00:27:25,978 --> 00:27:28,188
You know, it's hard not to
take it personally, right?
462
00:27:28,188 --> 00:27:31,233
Because I represent the
community and I know the
463
00:27:31,233 --> 00:27:33,694
people that have
been effected.
464
00:27:33,694 --> 00:27:37,573
JAMES (over PA):In my district right now,with the Camp Fire
465
00:27:37,573 --> 00:27:40,158
50,000 peoplehave been displaced.
466
00:27:40,158 --> 00:27:43,203
And you know, one of the mostimmediate things is how do we
467
00:27:43,203 --> 00:27:46,373
get housing delivered asexpeditiously as possible?
468
00:27:47,583 --> 00:27:49,334
WOMAN (over PA): You know,don't we have a responsibility
469
00:27:49,334 --> 00:27:51,253
to just sort of stopbuilding if it's going to be
470
00:27:51,253 --> 00:27:53,005
in areas thatare not defensible?
471
00:27:53,005 --> 00:27:54,339
Is there a pointat which we say,
472
00:27:54,339 --> 00:27:55,966
“You know what,
473
00:27:55,966 --> 00:27:57,551
these areas arejust going to be offlimits to development,
474
00:27:57,551 --> 00:27:59,678
because it's just goingto be too dangerous?”
475
00:27:59,678 --> 00:28:01,597
Have you thought about that?
476
00:28:01,930 --> 00:28:03,640
JAMES (over PA): Shouldwe deprioritize places that
477
00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:05,434
have earthquake risk?
478
00:28:05,434 --> 00:28:08,645
Should we deprioritizeplaces that have flood risk?
479
00:28:08,645 --> 00:28:10,689
Uh, we're going to startrunning out of places that we
480
00:28:10,689 --> 00:28:13,358
can build in this state.
481
00:28:13,358 --> 00:28:15,903
Understand thisabout Paradise,
482
00:28:15,903 --> 00:28:18,572
the overwhelming majority ofpeople moved there because
483
00:28:18,572 --> 00:28:22,159
they wanted to, notbecause they had to.
484
00:28:22,576 --> 00:28:25,245
If you know this community,it has a very strong sense of
485
00:28:25,245 --> 00:28:28,749
place and it's beenthere for over 100 years.
486
00:28:32,461 --> 00:28:35,672
ROB:
Its heritage was, you know,
Gold Rush days.
487
00:28:36,048 --> 00:28:38,091
It really is a, a
pioneering spirit.
488
00:28:41,386 --> 00:28:44,181
LEW: I can
remember when I was young.
489
00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:48,310
No restrictions to speak of.
No ordinances. No laws.
490
00:28:49,686 --> 00:28:53,690
It was a great contributor
to moving people to Paradise.
491
00:29:02,449 --> 00:29:05,452
MELISSA:
It was always surprising
to learn that Paradise
492
00:29:05,452 --> 00:29:09,289
was a city of 26,500, because
it never felt like that.
493
00:29:10,207 --> 00:29:12,084
Ever.
494
00:29:12,501 --> 00:29:14,211
ZUCCOLILLO:
It was like quintessential
small‐town America.
495
00:29:14,211 --> 00:29:16,088
It's kind of the other
part of California you never
496
00:29:16,088 --> 00:29:18,215
knew was here.
497
00:29:19,633 --> 00:29:22,344
DAVE:
Some of the nicest
people you'd ever want to meet.
498
00:29:25,430 --> 00:29:27,891
KAYLA: Anything
that's a lifetime first,
499
00:29:27,891 --> 00:29:29,434
I did in Paradise.
500
00:29:32,062 --> 00:29:36,733
(laughter)
501
00:29:36,733 --> 00:29:38,276
WOMAN: Yummy!
502
00:29:39,361 --> 00:29:41,530
MATT: Where we lived,
it was a good spot.
503
00:29:42,364 --> 00:29:45,450
I could hear the school
bell ring and then it
was time to go to class.
504
00:29:47,119 --> 00:29:48,370
On the weekends,
505
00:29:48,370 --> 00:29:50,330
there was the little
league softball fields.
506
00:29:50,330 --> 00:29:52,499
You could hear the crack of
the bat and parents cheering
507
00:29:52,499 --> 00:29:54,084
and stuff like that.
508
00:29:54,751 --> 00:29:56,086
MAN:
Who do you see in there?
509
00:29:56,086 --> 00:29:58,463
CHILD:
Mommy! Hi, Mom!
510
00:29:59,172 --> 00:30:01,049
MOTHER: Hi (inaudible).
511
00:30:01,383 --> 00:30:02,884
SINDI: There's no
place like Paradise.
512
00:30:02,884 --> 00:30:05,345
That'll always be home to me.
513
00:30:05,804 --> 00:30:07,180
You can't replace that.
514
00:30:12,269 --> 00:30:14,521
MICHELLE: I lived there for
30 years and I love that town.
515
00:30:17,315 --> 00:30:19,651
And I'm not going
to bail on it now.
516
00:30:20,277 --> 00:30:22,195
I'm not going to bail on it.
517
00:30:23,572 --> 00:30:27,409
Tom are we set up for people
at the bus stops on Monday?
518
00:30:27,409 --> 00:30:28,493
TOM: We will be.
519
00:30:28,493 --> 00:30:29,703
MICHELLE: Okay.
520
00:30:29,703 --> 00:30:30,787
TOM:
Two people for each bus.
521
00:30:31,496 --> 00:30:33,790
MICHELLE: Okay,
well we'll be here too, in
the morning and then...
522
00:30:34,207 --> 00:30:35,459
TOM: Are you going over
there in the morning?
523
00:30:35,459 --> 00:30:37,419
MICHELLE: Yeah, I'll be
there too, in the morning.
524
00:30:37,419 --> 00:30:39,296
Okay, alright.
525
00:30:39,755 --> 00:30:41,757
Um. What a mess.
526
00:30:42,340 --> 00:30:43,425
WOMAN:
We haven't eaten.
527
00:30:43,425 --> 00:30:45,469
PHIL: Well,
that's not very intelligent.
528
00:30:45,469 --> 00:30:47,512
WOMAN: There are
some things that take priority.
529
00:30:47,512 --> 00:30:50,265
PHIL: Over food?
And health?
530
00:30:50,265 --> 00:30:52,309
No, because if you're not
healthy and you don't eat,
531
00:30:52,309 --> 00:30:53,977
then you can't do your job.
532
00:30:53,977 --> 00:30:56,563
You know, in combat,
I learned that if you don't
533
00:30:56,563 --> 00:30:58,398
feed yourself and
take care of your men,
534
00:30:58,398 --> 00:30:59,524
and you don't feed them,
535
00:30:59,524 --> 00:31:01,026
then you can't fight.
536
00:31:01,026 --> 00:31:02,819
Well you can't fight if you
don't take care of yourself.
537
00:31:02,819 --> 00:31:05,113
MICHELLE: We're going to fight!
538
00:31:09,910 --> 00:31:13,080
MICHELLE:
We are renting sites for
kids that are displaced.
539
00:31:13,622 --> 00:31:16,166
So we rented mall space.
540
00:31:16,625 --> 00:31:19,252
No I prefer not to bring
them down the hill.
541
00:31:19,961 --> 00:31:23,381
We're asking our fellow
schools if they have
any extra classrooms.
542
00:31:24,382 --> 00:31:26,968
This is little
Durham Elementary.
543
00:31:26,968 --> 00:31:29,221
They've been so
nice to take us in.
544
00:31:31,765 --> 00:31:34,893
There's too many kids
depending on their schools and
545
00:31:34,893 --> 00:31:38,396
their teachers and
the friends they have,
546
00:31:38,396 --> 00:31:40,857
to just let everybody scatter.
547
00:31:43,193 --> 00:31:45,487
Hi! How are you?
548
00:31:46,363 --> 00:31:48,490
CHILD: I'm doing good!
I haven't seen you in a while.
549
00:31:48,490 --> 00:31:49,491
MICHELLE: Oh, I know.
550
00:31:49,491 --> 00:31:52,119
Because we haven't
been together, huh?
551
00:31:52,119 --> 00:31:53,411
You okay?
552
00:31:53,411 --> 00:31:54,704
CHILD: Yeah.
553
00:31:54,704 --> 00:31:56,414
MICHELLE: Okay.
So how do you guys like this,
554
00:31:56,414 --> 00:32:00,085
versus being at the
mall or in a classroom?
555
00:32:00,627 --> 00:32:02,462
CHILD: Well, I happen
to like being in class.
556
00:32:02,462 --> 00:32:05,465
MICHELLE: I know you do.
You always have.
557
00:32:05,465 --> 00:32:07,801
Well, where do you guys want
to go to school after this?
558
00:32:07,801 --> 00:32:09,386
CHILD 2: I kind of want
to stay in Evergreen.
559
00:32:09,386 --> 00:32:11,346
Because, like,
Evergreen is my school.
560
00:32:11,346 --> 00:32:13,598
MICHELLE: You know there's
no Evergreen right now.
561
00:32:13,598 --> 00:32:15,725
Yeah. I'm going to
find you another place.
562
00:32:15,725 --> 00:32:18,228
CHILD: So let's try this now.
563
00:32:19,187 --> 00:32:20,981
CHILD 2: Yeah, let's
see if this one work.
564
00:32:21,273 --> 00:32:24,359
MICHELLE: There you go!
Bingo. It's getting me cold.
565
00:32:26,736 --> 00:32:28,572
How many 6th
graders do you have?
566
00:32:28,572 --> 00:32:30,407
TEACHER: Actually showing up?
567
00:32:30,407 --> 00:32:31,616
Our, our biggest day was 33.
568
00:32:31,616 --> 00:32:32,909
Today we have 24.
569
00:32:32,909 --> 00:32:34,828
So, um, that's, that's
roughly a third of,
570
00:32:34,828 --> 00:32:37,038
of the 6th Grade population.
571
00:32:37,038 --> 00:32:38,623
MICHELLE: Where are they,
because we're missing like
572
00:32:38,623 --> 00:32:40,625
1,000 kids right now
that we haven't found.
573
00:32:40,625 --> 00:32:43,420
TEACHER: It's crazy.
MICHELLE: Yeah. It is. It is.
574
00:32:45,130 --> 00:32:46,423
Parents who are saying,
575
00:32:46,423 --> 00:32:47,841
“I need some
normalcy for my kids,
576
00:32:47,841 --> 00:32:51,636
I'm going to put them in
another district or something,”
577
00:32:51,636 --> 00:32:55,473
without students,
or teachers and our classified
578
00:32:55,473 --> 00:32:58,435
and food service
and custodians and bus
drivers and everybody.
579
00:32:59,019 --> 00:33:00,896
Nobody will have jobs.
580
00:33:00,896 --> 00:33:04,816
We just can't ever
let up right now.
581
00:33:05,442 --> 00:33:06,860
KRYSTLE: Come on!
582
00:33:06,860 --> 00:33:09,696
I need to think about
what's best for my kids.
583
00:33:09,696 --> 00:33:12,782
And right now is
to find a place and go
back up to Paradise.
584
00:33:14,409 --> 00:33:17,287
Arabella do you have anything
to say about Paradise?
585
00:33:17,954 --> 00:33:20,332
You don't have anything
to say about Paradise?
586
00:33:28,506 --> 00:33:30,258
WOMAN (over radio):All of the evacuation orders
587
00:33:30,258 --> 00:33:31,843
were lifted in Paradise.
588
00:33:31,843 --> 00:33:34,387
People are starting to return.
589
00:33:34,888 --> 00:33:36,514
WOMAN 2 (over radio):Most are in trailers thanks
590
00:33:36,514 --> 00:33:38,183
to an ordinancepassed by the town.
591
00:33:38,183 --> 00:33:40,310
WOMAN: She's been
living in her car.
592
00:33:40,310 --> 00:33:42,687
WOMAN: She will have a
place to call home finally.
593
00:33:48,485 --> 00:33:50,946
CARLY: The kids, a lot
of them are in trailers.
594
00:33:51,363 --> 00:33:53,573
A lot of them are doubled up,
tripled up, you know,
595
00:33:53,573 --> 00:33:55,909
living with family members,
nine people to a room.
596
00:33:55,909 --> 00:33:59,412
Um, they're,
they're struggling.
597
00:34:01,248 --> 00:34:03,041
This is not a typical
high school thing,
598
00:34:03,625 --> 00:34:06,086
to lose your town and to
not have a place to live,
599
00:34:06,086 --> 00:34:08,964
or to worry about
their friends moving.
600
00:34:09,673 --> 00:34:11,883
What kind of things
can you do to try to
release that anxiety?
601
00:34:11,883 --> 00:34:12,968
TRYSTIN: I listen to music.
602
00:34:12,968 --> 00:34:15,637
Um, and I'm trying to share
with people so they know
603
00:34:15,637 --> 00:34:16,888
they're not alone
in this world.
604
00:34:16,888 --> 00:34:18,348
CARLY: Exactly.
605
00:34:18,348 --> 00:34:20,100
TRYSTIN: They're not the only
ones that lost their mother.
606
00:34:20,100 --> 00:34:21,434
They're not the only ones
that lost their house.
607
00:34:21,434 --> 00:34:23,144
They're not the only ones that
lost something in their life.
608
00:34:23,144 --> 00:34:24,604
They're not...
609
00:34:24,604 --> 00:34:27,148
CARLY:
For me, right now,
it's just brand new, like,
610
00:34:27,148 --> 00:34:30,485
what to do,
how to support my kids.
611
00:34:30,485 --> 00:34:33,029
They're amazing,
but it's also, you know,
612
00:34:33,029 --> 00:34:36,533
shows you what, how hard
this really is for everybody.
613
00:34:38,243 --> 00:34:41,830
I work with some kids
on trauma counseling,
614
00:34:41,830 --> 00:34:43,915
which has been tough for me,
615
00:34:44,708 --> 00:34:47,002
since I almost died
in the fire myself.
616
00:34:48,044 --> 00:34:50,046
Um, so it's kind of hard
not to get triggered.
617
00:34:53,883 --> 00:34:57,512
November 8th, I got in my
car and started driving.
618
00:34:58,263 --> 00:35:00,932
And we go into
this black cloud.
619
00:35:02,809 --> 00:35:04,936
And then the flames
were everywhere.
620
00:35:06,021 --> 00:35:09,107
I'm worried that the
engine is going to explode.
621
00:35:09,107 --> 00:35:11,651
I'm dead‐stopped and I can't
go right or left because the
622
00:35:11,651 --> 00:35:14,571
flames are on both sides,
and I can't go back.
623
00:35:16,448 --> 00:35:18,408
I try to call my
mom to say goodbye,
624
00:35:18,408 --> 00:35:20,952
because I thought this is it.
625
00:35:23,163 --> 00:35:24,664
Yeah.
626
00:35:29,044 --> 00:35:31,046
ANNOUNCER (over PA):Thank you, Paradise Ice,
627
00:35:31,046 --> 00:35:32,881
for giving us aplace to come out.
628
00:35:32,881 --> 00:35:36,009
And please donot drink the water outof the water fountain.
629
00:35:36,843 --> 00:35:38,511
The water is not safe yet.
630
00:35:38,511 --> 00:35:40,597
They have free bottled water.
631
00:35:41,014 --> 00:35:42,724
REPORTER: Tell me a little bit
about putting on this event.
632
00:35:42,724 --> 00:35:44,434
Why'd you do it?
633
00:35:44,434 --> 00:35:47,020
MATT: Well, I can't
take full credit for
pretty much any of it.
634
00:35:47,020 --> 00:35:51,775
Um, the thought of
doing a tree lighting
ceremony was tossed out there.
635
00:35:52,817 --> 00:35:55,070
We saw that the skating
rink was still intact.
636
00:35:55,070 --> 00:35:56,905
The tree was donated.
637
00:35:56,905 --> 00:35:59,240
And everybody knew somebody
and pulled it together.
638
00:36:00,533 --> 00:36:03,203
WOMAN: Hi.
How are you guys doing?
639
00:36:03,203 --> 00:36:05,372
TENILLE: Oh, good, it's
great to see all these faces.
640
00:36:05,372 --> 00:36:07,666
WOMAN: I know, huh?
Isn't it nice?
641
00:36:08,124 --> 00:36:11,211
It's like, oh, let's just
get back, let's have our...
642
00:36:11,586 --> 00:36:13,046
TENILLE:
These are our people.
643
00:36:13,046 --> 00:36:14,756
EASTON:
Hi, little puppy.
644
00:36:16,549 --> 00:36:18,134
MATT: I'm glad you came.
MAN: Yeah.
645
00:36:18,134 --> 00:36:19,928
MATT: It's awesome
seeing people here.
646
00:36:19,928 --> 00:36:21,596
MAN: I just came to say
thank you to you man,
647
00:36:21,596 --> 00:36:23,056
you guys did a wonderful job.
648
00:36:23,056 --> 00:36:24,557
MATT: Thank you.
I appreciate that.
649
00:36:24,557 --> 00:36:27,352
TENILLE: They haven't been
able to see their dad very much.
650
00:36:27,352 --> 00:36:30,563
He's been working so
hard and being so brave,
651
00:36:30,563 --> 00:36:34,734
but I wish he was able to have
a little more time with us.
652
00:36:34,734 --> 00:36:37,821
Because we need him right now.
653
00:36:39,155 --> 00:36:40,782
Like, emotionally.
654
00:36:40,782 --> 00:36:43,785
And the boys, this is
a big deal for them.
655
00:36:44,536 --> 00:36:46,162
It's going to change their life,
656
00:36:46,162 --> 00:36:49,124
and we have to
lean on each other.
657
00:36:49,124 --> 00:36:53,128
My two boys,
they've been my crutches
through this whole thing.
658
00:37:01,052 --> 00:37:04,055
MATT: Hello.
TENILLE: Hey.
659
00:37:04,055 --> 00:37:07,475
MATT: So, I can't do
two things at once.
660
00:37:07,475 --> 00:37:09,978
Do you want to light
the tree with Easton?
661
00:37:09,978 --> 00:37:11,396
TENILLE: Sure.
662
00:37:11,396 --> 00:37:13,481
MATT: Like, when they
count down 5, 4, 3, 2, 1,
just plug it in?
663
00:37:13,481 --> 00:37:15,316
TENILLE: Yeah.
MATT: I'll show you where.
664
00:37:15,316 --> 00:37:17,902
Easton, did he get
his shoes back on?
665
00:37:17,902 --> 00:37:19,279
TENILLE: I took his skates off.
666
00:37:19,279 --> 00:37:24,159
MATT: Okay. Alright.
Here you go, dude.
667
00:37:27,287 --> 00:37:28,496
ANNOUNCER (over PA):Thank you for coming.
668
00:37:28,496 --> 00:37:30,331
And what agreat time to be here.
669
00:37:30,331 --> 00:37:32,667
It's so fun to see people.
670
00:37:32,667 --> 00:37:35,587
And I don't know, I don'tshake hands much anymore.
671
00:37:35,587 --> 00:37:38,840
It seems like we hug eachother more than anything else.
672
00:37:39,632 --> 00:37:41,301
This tree, it's small now,
673
00:37:41,301 --> 00:37:43,845
but it's going to growwith us and get stronger and
674
00:37:43,845 --> 00:37:46,014
taller as we getstronger and taller as a,
675
00:37:46,014 --> 00:37:47,390
as a community, right?
676
00:37:47,390 --> 00:37:49,267
(applause, cheers).
677
00:37:49,267 --> 00:37:53,188
ANNOUNCER (over PA):So, if you'd help me, 5.

00:48:53,514 --> 00:48:54,974
None of this stuff really
happens in a vacuum,
849
00:48:54,974 --> 00:48:58,853
there's this um, history of
land management going back
850
00:48:58,853 --> 00:49:01,605
thousands of years.
851
00:49:01,605 --> 00:49:04,275
It really affects what
is growing there now and
852
00:49:04,275 --> 00:49:06,861
why the fire burns
like it does now.
853
00:49:17,121 --> 00:49:19,373
ZEKE:
In the late 1800's,
854
00:49:19,373 --> 00:49:21,417
the timber barons
got to California before
855
00:49:21,417 --> 00:49:23,252
the Forest Service did,
and they bought all of the
856
00:49:23,252 --> 00:49:25,504
primo timber ground.
857
00:49:25,504 --> 00:49:28,299
A lot of logging happened.
858
00:49:29,049 --> 00:49:31,510
They didn't replant.
859
00:49:31,510 --> 00:49:34,472
That initiated changes
in the forest structure.
860
00:49:34,472 --> 00:49:36,182
So, because of that,
California has got these
861
00:49:36,182 --> 00:49:38,309
regulations that after logging
you have to plant a certain
862
00:49:38,309 --> 00:49:40,686
number of trees per acre.
863
00:49:40,686 --> 00:49:42,438
ZEKE:
So, it creates this perfect
landscape for this kind of
864
00:49:42,438 --> 00:49:44,440
hopscotching fire behavior,
where if you have a fire that
865
00:49:44,440 --> 00:49:46,484
starts here with the
wind blowing on it,
866
00:49:46,484 --> 00:49:49,653
it runs like it's a grass.
867
00:49:50,196 --> 00:49:52,740
All that leads us
toward where we are now.
868
00:49:53,949 --> 00:49:58,454
ZEKE:
That's why the Camp Fire ran
nine miles in the first day.
869
00:49:59,538 --> 00:50:02,041
It was just perfect
conditions for it.
870
00:50:02,666 --> 00:50:05,044
We've created this.
871
00:50:10,883 --> 00:50:12,718
ZACH: So this is
the access route for,
872
00:50:12,718 --> 00:50:14,595
for the flumes that's how
loggers used to get their
873
00:50:14,595 --> 00:50:16,514
timber down from the mountain.
874
00:50:16,514 --> 00:50:19,099
Basically, it goes
from the top, uh,
875
00:50:19,099 --> 00:50:21,310
where the Head Dam is,
all the way down.
876
00:50:21,310 --> 00:50:24,355
And the Head Dam is, like,
this old dam that was built so
877
00:50:24,355 --> 00:50:26,065
many years ago, so...
878
00:50:28,692 --> 00:50:32,321
It's hard to
communicate in words what
this town was like before.
879
00:50:34,240 --> 00:50:35,950
ZACH:
You have the mountains
where you, you know,
880
00:50:35,950 --> 00:50:37,826
a bunch of friends
spend a lot of time.
881
00:50:37,826 --> 00:50:39,286
We have the flumes.
882
00:50:39,286 --> 00:50:41,872
Like, just super
great places to swim.
883
00:50:43,624 --> 00:50:46,085
There's really,
really no other place
I'd rather grow up.
884
00:50:47,670 --> 00:50:49,338
BRANDON: It used to be
a lot more beautiful.
885
00:50:49,338 --> 00:50:51,340
ZACH: Yeah, it used to be.
886
00:50:52,591 --> 00:50:54,426
BRANDON: For us, this is
a little bit underwhelming.
887
00:50:54,426 --> 00:50:56,762
ZACH: Yeah.
888
00:50:57,930 --> 00:50:59,473
ZACH: I remember,
right before the fire,
889
00:50:59,473 --> 00:51:01,976
Burke and I went down to
the flumes had a lot of fun,
890
00:51:01,976 --> 00:51:04,270
and it's the small
stuff you miss, I guess.
891
00:51:07,815 --> 00:51:10,067
And then, you know,
my town's gone.
892
00:51:10,067 --> 00:51:12,069
A lot of my friends
are gone now.
893
00:51:13,237 --> 00:51:16,657
I feel like I got robbed
of my senior year.
894
00:51:17,575 --> 00:51:20,494
And now we don't
graduate, on the
Paradise High School field,
895
00:51:20,494 --> 00:51:23,581
I couldn't do it.
I wouldn't show up.
896
00:51:24,123 --> 00:51:27,042
I know a lot of my
friends wouldn't either.
897
00:51:28,836 --> 00:51:32,089
MICHELLE:
The high school only had
one wing that was burned,
898
00:51:32,506 --> 00:51:35,217
but there is no
water, electricity.
899
00:51:35,759 --> 00:51:37,553
The seniors said,
900
00:51:37,553 --> 00:51:40,639
“We want to graduate
on Om Wraith Field,
like we always do.”
901
00:51:40,639 --> 00:51:43,225
But we're being told
that it's not safe,
902
00:51:43,225 --> 00:51:46,020
because of the burned
trees all around the field.
903
00:51:46,020 --> 00:51:47,646
Okay, guys. Let's do it.
904
00:51:48,397 --> 00:51:51,150
So. Trees.
905
00:51:51,775 --> 00:51:54,069
We have about 1,000
trees to take down.
906
00:51:54,069 --> 00:51:56,113
WOMAN: So who's
doing it on the grounds
of the public library?
907
00:51:56,905 --> 00:51:58,365
On the grounds of Town Hall?
908
00:51:58,365 --> 00:51:59,992
MICHELLE: They're going
through the whole process,
909
00:51:59,992 --> 00:52:01,952
because they want to
be reimbursed by FEMA.
910
00:52:01,952 --> 00:52:03,662
Here's the issue.
911
00:52:04,288 --> 00:52:07,458
We don't have the
timeline to follow that
and still graduate.
912
00:52:09,043 --> 00:52:10,794
Seriously, what do we do?
913
00:52:14,840 --> 00:52:16,342
MAN (over TV): Well,it's official tonight,
914
00:52:16,342 --> 00:52:19,178
Cal Fire has concluded thatPG&E is responsible for
915
00:52:19,178 --> 00:52:22,139
causing the deadliest firein California History.
916
00:52:23,557 --> 00:52:25,643
WOMAN (over TV): Rebuildingtrust and the community are
917
00:52:25,643 --> 00:52:27,436
what victims hope for.
918
00:52:29,605 --> 00:52:31,857
JODY (over PA): So, at this timwe're going to move on to the
919
00:52:31,857 --> 00:52:35,778
presentation by Aaron Johnsonfrom Pacific Gas & Electric on
920
00:52:35,778 --> 00:52:39,156
their future energy plansfor the town of Paradise.
921
00:52:46,580 --> 00:52:48,499
AARON (over PA): Um,thank you for having me.
922
00:52:48,499 --> 00:52:51,210
I'm going to admit tobeing a little bit nervous.
923
00:52:55,631 --> 00:52:58,634
So as I stand in frontof you here tonight,
924
00:52:58,634 --> 00:53:00,594
on behalf of my company,
925
00:53:00,594 --> 00:53:03,764
I want to apologize forthe role our equipment
926
00:53:03,764 --> 00:53:06,475
had in this tragedy.
927
00:53:08,477 --> 00:53:12,314
We know we have a lot ofwork to do to strengthenour electrical system.
928
00:53:12,773 --> 00:53:15,734
We are taking that on withmore inspections and repairs
929
00:53:15,734 --> 00:53:18,529
of our equipment,hardening the grid,
930
00:53:18,529 --> 00:53:20,698
and we will beundergrounding the entire
931
00:53:20,698 --> 00:53:23,659
electrical distributionsystem for the town.
932
00:53:23,659 --> 00:53:27,204
It will take us,we estimate five years to
933
00:53:27,204 --> 00:53:29,623
fully restore your communities.
934
00:53:31,417 --> 00:53:33,585
MAN (over PA):With the undergroundingwe're talking about,
935
00:53:33,585 --> 00:53:36,547
will that be part of a rateraise to pay for all that?
936
00:53:36,547 --> 00:53:38,090
Who's going to payfor all of that?
937
00:53:39,425 --> 00:53:41,343
MAN 2 (over PA): You didn'tneed to cut down my trees and
938
00:53:41,343 --> 00:53:43,345
kill the value of my property,
939
00:53:43,345 --> 00:53:45,973
because you're going tounderground the power lines.
940
00:53:45,973 --> 00:53:48,809
Now that you've decidedthat you're at fault.
941
00:53:48,809 --> 00:53:52,646
Get your checkbookout and I'd loveto see a check from you.
942
00:53:53,230 --> 00:53:54,732
(applause).
943
00:53:54,732 --> 00:53:56,108
MAN 3 (over PA): Ithink you missed a group.
944
00:53:56,108 --> 00:53:58,193
85 people died here and wereally want to hear that
945
00:53:58,193 --> 00:54:01,488
apology to the familiesof those 85 people.
946
00:54:01,488 --> 00:54:04,283
(applause).
947
00:54:06,702 --> 00:54:08,996
AARON (over PA):Our hearts go out tothose that lost loved ones.
948
00:54:08,996 --> 00:54:11,915
They have my apology as wellon behalf of this company.
949
00:54:11,915 --> 00:54:14,793
On behalf of this company,and we'll be here for the
950
00:54:14,793 --> 00:54:18,714
long haul to do right by thiscommunity and fix what we can.
951
00:54:19,089 --> 00:54:20,424
I've never been ina situation like this,
952
00:54:20,424 --> 00:54:21,717
I can't tell you...
953
00:54:21,717 --> 00:54:24,094
MICHELLE:
I think they should
have to come live here and see
954
00:54:24,094 --> 00:54:27,139
what people are going through.
955
00:54:29,808 --> 00:54:33,187
You know, they can take
all this fricking dirt
and burned up cars way,
956
00:54:34,521 --> 00:54:37,357
but you're still left
behind with broken people.
957
00:54:39,401 --> 00:54:42,613
The absolute crippling effect
this has had on all of us.
958
00:54:43,489 --> 00:54:46,700
That our lives
will never ever be the
same because of this.
959
00:54:54,166 --> 00:54:57,544
CARLY: You ready?
Let's go, let's go, come on.
960
00:55:00,297 --> 00:55:02,424
My home doesn't necessarily
feel like home anymore.
961
00:55:03,091 --> 00:55:04,468
Can you sit?
962
00:55:04,468 --> 00:55:05,928
Good girl.
963
00:55:07,179 --> 00:55:09,181
I don't have
neighbors anymore.
964
00:55:09,932 --> 00:55:11,808
Let's go, let's go.
965
00:55:14,019 --> 00:55:19,066
My house made
it from the fire.
966
00:55:21,026 --> 00:55:23,737
A lot of people don't
want to live up here.
967
00:55:24,238 --> 00:55:26,990
The devastation is hard
to live with every day.
968
00:55:29,284 --> 00:55:31,203
MAN (over radio): When thefire tore through Paradise,
969
00:55:31,203 --> 00:55:32,913
let me just paintthis picture for you,
970
00:55:32,913 --> 00:55:34,540
it burned all the cars,the lawnmowers,
971
00:55:34,540 --> 00:55:36,333
the heavy equipment,the vehicles, the buildings.
972
00:55:36,333 --> 00:55:41,129
Uh, and it released along list of toxic chemicals
973
00:55:41,129 --> 00:55:43,257
in the emissions.
974
00:55:45,509 --> 00:55:47,386
MAN (over radio): At thetop of the list is benzene.
975
00:55:47,386 --> 00:55:49,471
It's a chemical thatwas released when, uh,
976
00:55:49,471 --> 00:55:53,684
the town's plasticwater pipes burned.
977
00:55:54,434 --> 00:55:57,688
And government agencieswarn that drinking water
978
00:55:57,688 --> 00:56:00,107
that's been contaminatedwith benzene can cause cancer.
979
00:56:01,066 --> 00:56:03,110
So, you can't evenheat the water to wash.
980
00:56:03,819 --> 00:56:04,778
WOMAN (over radio):You can't take a hot shower.
981
00:56:04,778 --> 00:56:06,071
MAN (over radio): Exactly.
982
00:56:06,071 --> 00:56:07,906
JUSTIN: Paradise water,
at one time, was like the
983
00:56:07,906 --> 00:56:09,741
second‐cleanest
water in the state.
984
00:56:09,741 --> 00:56:13,870
And now it may not be
drinkable for up to three years.
985
00:56:16,081 --> 00:56:17,666
CARLY: I want a baby.
986
00:56:17,666 --> 00:56:20,168
And my boyfriend
and I are kind of in that
place where we're ready.
987
00:56:20,168 --> 00:56:22,629
But I saw, you know, a
doctor, and they're like,
988
00:56:22,629 --> 00:56:25,841
“You should not be
having a child while you're
living in that environment,
989
00:56:26,592 --> 00:56:28,218
because there's
benzene in the water.”
990
00:56:28,218 --> 00:56:30,220
I'm taking showers
in the benzene.
991
00:56:30,220 --> 00:56:32,681
Um, it absorbs
through your skin.
992
00:56:32,681 --> 00:56:35,976
And so it's like, I had to
put off that idea for a while,
993
00:56:36,435 --> 00:56:38,979
or I have to move, and
there's nowhere to move.
994
00:56:39,354 --> 00:56:42,316
KEVIN (over radio):We've seen this happen in oneother district in California,
995
00:56:43,025 --> 00:56:44,568
which was Santa Rosa.
996
00:56:44,568 --> 00:56:47,112
And to clear the 350water lines from Santa Rosa,
997
00:56:47,112 --> 00:56:48,447
it took them eleven months.
998
00:56:48,447 --> 00:56:50,282
So we are developing...
999
00:56:50,282 --> 00:56:52,326
MARC (over radio):Well, hold on Kevin.
1000
00:56:52,326 --> 00:56:55,412
So, if it took Santa Rosaeleven months to clear350 lines and you have.
1001
00:56:55,412 --> 00:56:58,415
KEVIN (over radio): 10,500.MARC (over radio): 10,500.
1002
00:56:58,415 --> 00:57:01,293
At that rate, it wouldtake about 25 years.
1003
00:57:01,293 --> 00:57:03,920
CARLY:
So those are things I just
didn't foresee and that are
1004
00:57:03,920 --> 00:57:06,423
starting to make me
realize how big of a disaster
1005
00:57:06,423 --> 00:57:08,300
it really was.
1006
00:57:08,717 --> 00:57:10,510
It's just a lot right now.
1007
00:57:10,510 --> 00:57:12,095
It's, It's getting harder.
1008
00:57:12,095 --> 00:57:14,514
For some, I thought it would
get easier as time went on,
1009
00:57:14,514 --> 00:57:17,267
but it's actually getting
harder somehow, um,
1010
00:57:17,267 --> 00:57:19,019
which I didn't anticipate.
1011
00:57:29,154 --> 00:57:31,198
BROOKE: This one is my fish,
1012
00:57:31,198 --> 00:57:33,700
and then the
other fish is Pearl's.
1013
00:57:34,242 --> 00:57:36,745
And then Mommy and
Daddy has the birds.
1014
00:57:37,788 --> 00:57:39,373
KRYSTLE: We love our pets.
1015
00:57:39,373 --> 00:57:42,084
BROOKE: But they
keep on getting dead.
1016
00:57:43,043 --> 00:57:45,504
BROOKE:
We have to keep on
flushing them down the toilet.
1017
00:58:03,313 --> 00:58:05,232
KRYSTLE: It's hard.
1018
00:58:05,774 --> 00:58:09,319
This disaster has really
affected everybody.
1019
00:58:10,987 --> 00:58:14,199
Me and Marcus have
had a struggle.
1020
00:58:14,199 --> 00:58:16,868
There's times that
we've broken up, you know?
1021
00:58:16,868 --> 00:58:19,538
But we tend to
get back together for
the sake of the kids.
1022
00:58:20,497 --> 00:58:24,167
(laughter to crying).
1023
00:58:34,261 --> 00:58:36,221
MICHELLE: The
day of the fire, Phil said,
1024
00:58:36,221 --> 00:58:38,098
“We're going to Roni's.”
1025
00:58:38,098 --> 00:58:39,224
And I remember saying,
1026
00:58:39,224 --> 00:58:41,309
“What?” And he goes,
“They called us.”
1027
00:58:41,309 --> 00:58:42,644
And I went...
1028
00:58:42,644 --> 00:58:44,146
PHIL: Oh, on
the way home from the fire?
1029
00:58:44,146 --> 00:58:46,273
MICHELLE: Yeah.
And I went, “Oh my God.”
1030
00:58:46,773 --> 00:58:48,900
RONI: You know, we really
didn't see each other
1031
00:58:48,900 --> 00:58:51,695
for almost 20 years.
1032
00:58:51,695 --> 00:58:55,407
This whole tragedy kind of,
um, brought our family together.
1033
00:58:55,407 --> 00:58:57,075
MICHELLE: Not that we
want the fire to happen,
1034
00:58:57,075 --> 00:58:59,244
but that would have
never have happened.
1035
00:58:59,619 --> 00:59:00,746
PHIL: People are weird.
1036
00:59:00,746 --> 00:59:02,581
MICHELLE:
I don't know why
we ever let that happen.
1037
00:59:02,581 --> 00:59:06,042
You know we're here because
we can't live in our own home,
1038
00:59:06,042 --> 00:59:08,170
but we were lucky
and it didn't burn.
1039
00:59:08,170 --> 00:59:11,131
PHIL: And we are blessed,
we're with you guys.
1040
00:59:11,131 --> 00:59:14,342
I mean, I know
people that are living
with total strangers.
1041
00:59:14,342 --> 00:59:17,387
And you guys are so sweet
and kind to take care of us.
1042
00:59:17,387 --> 00:59:20,015
MICHELLE: Those first few
days when I was working
1043
00:59:20,015 --> 00:59:21,308
around the clock.
1044
00:59:21,308 --> 00:59:25,270
And they'd have, they'd have
a vodka tonic ready for me.
1045
00:59:26,271 --> 00:59:27,773
I just...
1046
00:59:27,773 --> 00:59:29,483
RONI: I think now you guys
have realized that you have
1047
00:59:29,483 --> 00:59:30,817
to start thinking
about yourselves.
1048
00:59:30,817 --> 00:59:32,652
And, and you've been
thinking about the community,
1049
00:59:32,652 --> 00:59:33,653
the school.
1050
00:59:33,653 --> 00:59:36,323
PHIL: We just
haven't had the time.
1051
00:59:36,323 --> 00:59:37,324
But one day.
1052
00:59:37,324 --> 00:59:39,785
RONI: It's, you guys.
It's taking its toll.
1053
00:59:39,785 --> 00:59:42,037
He's up all hours
of the night.
1054
00:59:42,037 --> 00:59:44,831
PHIL: The, the PTSD is
backing off a wee bit.
1055
00:59:44,831 --> 00:59:47,209
Because it, you know, I have,
1056
00:59:47,209 --> 00:59:49,252
I have it from the
old days from the Army.
1057
00:59:49,252 --> 00:59:51,296
And now it gets re‐exacerbated
by where you get your
1058
00:59:51,296 --> 00:59:52,798
nightmares mixed up, you know.
1059
00:59:52,798 --> 00:59:55,300
PHIL:
It's like, wait a minute,
1060
00:59:55,300 --> 00:59:57,052
that's a nightmare
from the old days.
1061
00:59:57,052 --> 00:59:59,221
But I, I'm getting,
every day is better.
1062
00:59:59,221 --> 01:00:02,182
Especially cause of you guys.
1063
01:00:04,476 --> 01:00:05,811

1064
01:00:05,811 --> 01:00:08,188
MATT: You can show me.
10‐98. Report taken.
1065
01:00:08,897 --> 01:00:11,900
I don't know which is worse
having your home be completely
1066
01:00:11,900 --> 01:00:15,403
gone or still have
a house that's just in
the middle of all this.
1067
01:00:18,615 --> 01:00:21,993
And every day
I want to go to work I
have to drive up Skyway.
1068
01:00:22,994 --> 01:00:26,122
There are somedays
where it's just cloudy
over Paradise that, uh,
1069
01:00:26,122 --> 01:00:29,251
it just gives me
cold sweat, chills.
1070
01:00:30,961 --> 01:00:34,548
Because it does still feel
like it was yesterday.
1071
01:00:34,881 --> 01:00:37,008
I watched all this
start to burn.
1072
01:00:37,008 --> 01:00:38,468
Burn closer and closer
to my house and I'm like,
1073
01:00:38,468 --> 01:00:43,473
“well,” so yeah, I literally
watched my house burn down.
1074
01:00:49,896 --> 01:00:51,773
MATT: Paradise,
the fire has reached Eagleton.
1075
01:00:53,733 --> 01:00:55,485

JUSTIN: How's it coming?
1085

KAYLA: It will be cheaper,
which will be really nice,
1086
01:01:48,830 --> 01:01:51,666
because then we could start
saving more money to put away
1087
01:01:51,666 --> 01:01:54,961
for a piece of property,
which is our ultimate goal.
1088

get my sculpture.

1090

KAYLA: No.

JUSTIN: It's really,
it's really not.
1093
01:02:02,761 --> 01:02:04,429
KAYLA: We could get a gnome
and they could be friends!
1094
01:02:04,429 --> 01:02:05,472
JUSTIN: No, no.
1095

It sounds very easy.
It took months to do this.
1173
01:07:20,370 --> 01:07:22,914
So we do not have to go
through FEMA for our trees.
1174

And the trees will start
being removed next week.

1347
01:18:47,473 --> 01:18:49,225
CARLY: Hi, Fern.
This is Carly Ingersoll,
1348
01:18:49,225 --> 01:18:51,310
school psychologist
at the high school.
1349
01:18:51,310 --> 01:18:53,020
The wheelchair, we
did get it ordered,
1350
01:18:53,020 --> 01:18:55,773
it's all been confirmed
now, and it is on the way.
1351
01:18:55,773 --> 01:18:56,941
Thanks so much, Fern.
1352
01:18:56,941 --> 01:18:58,734
Talk to you soon. Bye‐bye.
1353
01:18:59,360 --> 01:19:00,819
Hello, this is Carly.
1354
01:19:00,819 --> 01:19:02,988
I'm really thankful
that school started.
1355
01:19:02,988 --> 01:19:04,907
We're talking about
the future now.
1356
01:19:04,907 --> 01:19:07,660
We've, we've
had our time in the past
and dealt with the trauma.
1357
01:19:08,285 --> 01:19:11,038
And we really are
going to heal together.
1358
01:19:11,455 --> 01:19:13,874
These kids are everything.
1359
01:19:13,874 --> 01:19:17,002
And the fact that they came
back, we can come back.
1360
01:19:17,002 --> 01:19:19,129
GROUP: If you can't hear us,
we'll yell a little louder.
1361
01:19:22,591 --> 01:19:25,344
GROUP: If you can't hear us,
we'll yell a little louder.
1362
01:19:25,761 --> 01:19:28,555
We're from Paradise,
couldn't be prouder.
1363
01:19:28,555 --> 01:19:31,183
If you can't hear us,
we'll yell a little louder.
1364
01:19:32,351 --> 01:19:35,104
MICHELLE: For us to
have this number of kids,
1365
01:19:35,104 --> 01:19:38,857
the first thing I thought was,
"I've got to call Phil."
1366
01:19:39,441 --> 01:19:42,194
Because he would
have loved it.
1367
01:19:52,413 --> 01:19:56,083
MICHELLE: I am
announcing my retirement.
1368
01:20:00,462 --> 01:20:05,175
Home is where the people you
love are, and Phil's not here.
1369
01:20:09,263 --> 01:20:11,890
I hate this fricking view.
1370
01:20:11,890 --> 01:20:14,351
Wouldn't it be nice just
to wake up and have this be
1371
01:20:14,351 --> 01:20:19,273
a bad dream and have Phil be
here and have no burnt down.
1372
01:20:19,273 --> 01:20:20,274
RONI: Mm‐hmm.
1373
01:20:20,274 --> 01:20:22,735
MICHELLE: Crap everywhere?
1374
01:20:24,486 --> 01:20:27,114
There's a bunch
of dragonflies.
1375
01:20:27,114 --> 01:20:31,618
(Michelle cries).
1376
01:20:51,472 --> 01:20:53,432
MATT: Right after the fire
the police department was
1377
01:20:53,432 --> 01:20:56,101
put on 13‐hour
days indefinitely.
1378
01:20:56,101 --> 01:20:57,269
Like, no days off.
1379
01:20:57,269 --> 01:20:59,855
And my wife and I
were having issues.
1380
01:20:59,855 --> 01:21:02,816
And then after Christmas,
1381
01:21:02,816 --> 01:21:05,778
I, I moved out
into the trailer.
1382
01:21:05,778 --> 01:21:09,198
And my ex‐wife has the
loss of use policy money,
1383
01:21:09,198 --> 01:21:12,284
and she's staying
in, in a house.
1384
01:21:12,284 --> 01:21:15,996
I have the boys Monday,
Tuesday, Wednesday,
1385
01:21:15,996 --> 01:21:17,748
and every other Thursday.
1386
01:21:17,748 --> 01:21:19,958
How do you like trailer life?
1387
01:21:19,958 --> 01:21:21,585
EASTON: I really
miss my home showers.
1388
01:21:21,585 --> 01:21:23,504
They're so cold.
1389
01:21:23,504 --> 01:21:26,006
MATT: The one thing that we
definitely agree on is to keep
1390
01:21:26,006 --> 01:21:28,175
the focus on the boys
and try and figure out what
1391
01:21:28,175 --> 01:21:31,428
kind of future needs
to be built for them.
1392
01:21:31,428 --> 01:21:35,349
I don't see it being here,
in Paradise.
1393
01:21:45,067 --> 01:21:47,277
MAN (over radio):PG&E announced it had reached
1394
01:21:47,277 --> 01:21:51,407
a $13.5 billionsettlement agreementwith wildfire victims.
1395
01:21:51,407 --> 01:21:53,659
WOMAN (over radio):We're talking about thousands
1396
01:21:53,659 --> 01:21:55,619
of wildfire victims,past fires as well.
1397
01:21:55,619 --> 01:21:57,955
So, we don't knowif individual victims
1398
01:21:57,955 --> 01:22:01,500
will really seea lot of money.
1399
01:22:07,131 --> 01:22:09,925
WOODY: There's
a lot of people here real
messed up from this fire.
1400
01:22:12,428 --> 01:22:16,014
A lot of guys
that want to come back
and their wives won't,
1401
01:22:16,765 --> 01:22:18,851
they were so traumatized.
1402
01:22:19,560 --> 01:22:22,062
Alright? It's alright.
1403
01:22:23,188 --> 01:22:24,148
MAUREEN: I'm ready.
1404
01:22:24,148 --> 01:22:28,610
WOODY: Let's go.
It's big deal. Alright.
1405
01:22:29,319 --> 01:22:32,531
I'm fortunate my wife
wants to come back.
1406
01:22:32,948 --> 01:22:34,992
MAUREEN: New key, new home.
1407
01:22:37,327 --> 01:22:40,122
WOODY: Welcome home.
MAUREEN: Welcome home.
1408
01:22:46,086 --> 01:22:48,964
(crying)
1409
01:22:48,964 --> 01:22:51,175
WOODY: We had a long year.
1410
01:22:51,175 --> 01:22:53,010
BRIDGETTE:
It's been a hard year.
1411
01:22:53,010 --> 01:22:54,887
WOODY: No more fire...
1412
01:22:56,180 --> 01:22:57,222
An older guy came by,
1413
01:22:57,222 --> 01:22:59,057
he says, “My wife
made this for you guys.
1414
01:22:59,057 --> 01:23:00,767
Welcome back home.”
1415
01:23:00,767 --> 01:23:03,020
You know, so that
was kind of nice.
1416
01:23:03,020 --> 01:23:04,688
MAUREEN: We don't know him.
1417
01:23:04,688 --> 01:23:07,316
It's the community,
you know, so.
1418
01:23:10,444 --> 01:23:13,822
WOODY: A lot of people
said it's wrong to rebuild.
1419
01:23:16,033 --> 01:23:18,911
I'm 74 years old,
I don't give a...
1420
01:23:19,870 --> 01:23:23,624
You know,
is it right to build a
house in a hurricane zone
1421
01:23:23,624 --> 01:23:26,919
in Miami on the beach?
1422
01:23:27,544 --> 01:23:31,048
This is where I want to be.
1423
01:23:38,222 --> 01:23:40,390
BRANDON: That's not
looking all too good.
1424
01:23:40,807 --> 01:23:44,728
This has been on my property
longer than I've been alive.
1425
01:23:45,187 --> 01:23:47,147
This is a cherry tree.
1426
01:23:47,147 --> 01:23:51,068
So was that, that, that,
that, that, and that.
1427
01:23:52,277 --> 01:23:54,947
You'll see, like, pictures
of Japan and, like,
1428
01:23:54,947 --> 01:23:56,156
their cherry
blossoms and stuff,
1429
01:23:56,156 --> 01:23:58,575
that's what I had
in my backyard.
1430
01:23:58,575 --> 01:24:00,202
And then I have
the running creek.
1431
01:24:00,202 --> 01:24:02,162
I would just sit out here.
1432
01:24:02,162 --> 01:24:04,081
Like, right around here.
1433
01:24:04,081 --> 01:24:07,125
I had a deck right there,
so I would sit there, too.
1434
01:24:07,125 --> 01:24:09,962
And my property was
like pure serenity.
1435
01:24:12,714 --> 01:24:15,259
I loved Paradise.
1436
01:24:15,259 --> 01:24:17,135
Paradise is my true home.
1437
01:24:17,135 --> 01:24:19,137
I'm going to move
back up here.
1438
01:24:19,137 --> 01:24:21,640
I'm going to rebuild on
this property right here.
1439
01:24:21,640 --> 01:24:24,935
And I want to
raise my kids here.
1440
01:24:25,352 --> 01:24:28,230
By that time, Paradise
will be what it used to be,
1441
01:24:28,855 --> 01:24:32,025
and even more beautiful.
1442
01:24:43,078 --> 01:24:45,163
JODY (over PA): On behalfof the town council and staff,
1443
01:24:45,163 --> 01:24:48,500

1444
01:24:48,500 --> 01:24:50,586

1445
01:24:58,594 --> 01:25:04,016
MELISSA (over PA): It isso important to rememberwe aren't alone in this.
1446
01:25:05,100 --> 01:25:09,146
As we rebuild ourlives, we begin to heal.
1447
01:25:12,691 --> 01:25:18,155
And as we heal, we feelourselves rising from the
1448
01:25:18,155 --> 01:25:20,407
ashes like the phoenix.
1449
01:25:22,618 --> 01:25:25,120
That we will survive,
1450
01:25:26,163 --> 01:25:30,709
thrive and together wewill create a beautifuland lasting community.
1451
01:25:37,007 --> 01:25:38,467
MELISSA (over PA): Andif that's not Paradise,
1452
01:25:38,467 --> 01:25:41,219
I don't know what is.
1453
01:25:41,970 --> 01:25:43,430
GROUP: We're from Paradise,
couldn't be prouder.
1454

we'll yell a little louder.

tornados that hit Alabama,
1460
01:26:11,375 --> 01:26:15,379

be nice to show them
the support that we got.
1461
01:26:16,672 --> 01:26:18,924

01:26:18,924 --> 01:26:20,300
oh, that's really sad.
1463
01:26:20,300 --> 01:26:23,345
Like, I hope that they
can get help and stuff.
1464
01:26:23,345 --> 01:26:25,305
But now I see the news
and I'm like, oh my gosh,
