NAPA, Calif. – With roads still obstructed by the authorities and fires still raging across broad swaths of Northern California, Matt Lenzi hiked through smoke-choked vineyards and waded the Napa River to access the home his father resided in for 53 years. In its place, he discovered only blackened debris, blackened earth, and ash.
“Every piece of vegetation was gone,” stated Mr. Lenzi on Tuesday, after going back in the vain anticipation of discovering the pet cat that his dad, Carl Lenzi, who is in his 80s, left behind when he fled for his life. “Even the barbecue melted, and that’s built to take heat.”
