  2. “The Lost Bus” Torches the Screen With Tension

    Earlier this week, we had the opportunity to watch The Lost Bus starring Matthew McConaughey and American Ferrera on Apple TV. This tension-packed film tells the harrowing story of a school bus driver, grade school teacher, and 22 elementary school students trying desperately to escape the 2018 Camp Fire that destroyed the City of Paradise, California.

    The realism of the movie, including the immeasurable strength and tenacity of the wildfire, the valiant attempts by Cal Fire to get it under control, and the terrifying efforts to escape the rapid advance of flames and choking smoke by bus, car, or on foot, were simply spellbinding. Viewers will definitely be on the edge of they seats/sofas while viewing this memorable film.

    It’s hard to fathom a wildfire that ignites at 6:15 a.m., reaches a city of 27,000 people (Paradise) located eight (8) miles away in two hours, and utterly torches it within four. One can only shake their head in awe (and fear) of the overarching power of Mother Nature when she’s been wronged by humanity’s disregard for the Earth.

    As one who is in awe of the bravery of Smokejumpers, Hot Shot Crews, and other wildfire fighters, this film does a great job depicting the dangerous and deadly conditions they face on a regular basis. We owe them such an enormous debt of gratitude regardless of their place of birth for putting their lives on the line to protect us. It’s dedication like this and/or in service to our nation through the military, that should be rewarded and commended…not coldly tossed aside.

    Peace!

  4. *We are very lucky our kids weren't on that bus*

    _The Lost Bus_ was released today on Apple TV+, with Matthew McConaughey and America Ferrera. I read the book it's based on, _Paradise_ by Lizzie Johnson ([Amazon](a.co/d/87rDSpv)).

    It just happened that one of our kids had missed school the previous week because they were sick and I had forgotten to drop off the doctor’s note at the office that morning. When I got home I found the note and took it back to the school (just around the corner from us). When I got there they said they were sending kids home (they didn’t call it “evacuating” yet). If it wasn’t for that doctor's note, our kids would have been on that bus, too.

    We were stuck in traffic next to that bus for what felt like hours. But at some point we turned, I think on Bille Road towards Skyway, while they continued down Clark Road.

    I still see that bus around town sometimes, they haven’t retired it.

    Some of those kids still go to school with ours. We had a terrifying day but at least we spent it together. I can’t imagine the nightmare it was for those kids on the bus. And their parents waiting for them in Gridley.

    The trailer gave me a PTSD episode, with the overhead view of the bus driving straight through the flames. Just like we did. So I don’t think I’ll be able to watch it myself, but I hope it raises awareness of our plight.
