I have sat here in tears after listening and looking at that picture. Thank you for the entry.
The Big Sur area may look like a moonscape now but wait until Spring. Henry Coe State Park looked like that right after its 50,00 acre fire last year. But this Spring, there were masses of beautiful native flowers everywhere in the burned area. Some of the flowere hadn't been seen in years. Everything was growing furiously and green was everywhere.
I also remember the horrible Marble Cone fire and suceeding fires that came later. You are right, it will grow back. It just hurts right now.
