We watched fire personnel battle a fire today in the hills overlooking Bodega Bay. They had fire trucks coming in the area for about 30 minutes and then a plane came over the hills from approximately the Santa Rosa area. The plane made a two passes over the fire and then on the third and forth pass it dropped the orange fire "stuff". The fire went out pretty fast after that thank goodness.
