Introduction

​

I live in Windsor, CA. In October 2017 we were affected by the wildfires, but mostly indirectly, and nowhere near to the degree that many of our friends were. I first visited Larkfield and Coffey Park several weeks after fire devastated large areas.  Initially the pain was palpable, and each visit was both extremely affecting, and felt like I was intruding. However, by December the feeling had shifted, with many of the people I met being construction workers, for whom this wasn't a tragedy so much as a work opportunity.

 

I included photos of the aftermath of the fire, but the real purpose of this website is to document the hopeful story of rebuilding that I saw over the following months and years. My visits were intermittent, so the building of some houses happen to be well documented, while others seem to suddenly appear - such is the nature of random sampling.

​

I have no desire to hold onto these photos. If you want them, please download them and enjoy them. I do ask that you respect my ownership, and please don't pass them off as your own, but otherwise, do whatever you would like with them.

​

If your house appears in any of these photos, contact me in case I have any more pictures, or to receive higher resolution versions of the pictures you see..
