Yeah, a good friend of mine who had a Cannabis farm up in that area between Napa Valley and Sonoma lost virtually everything: home, land, all possessions including his fine art collection, wine collection, 6000 CDs and his high-end audio system, which was in storage. Everything completely gone.

But he’s still here and all that stuff can be replaced. Not the vines of course, but all the structures and their contents. Still a massive tragedy but I like to try and find a grain of goodness amongst the devastation. Too painful otherwise.
