Winters family saves home from wildfire with retired fire truck

A family in Winters saved their home from an incoming wildfire and lived to tell the tale. The Bonovich ranch is surrounded by walnut orchards on two sides, and the land there is well irrigated as a result. The family maintains plenty of defensible space around the property and keeps the vegetation trimmed down with the help of grazing cattle. The night of the fire, the Bonovich men - father Greg and two sons Nick and Jake - sprang into action, hosing back the flames with water pulled from a newly installed 2,500 gallon tank and mopping up hot spots with an old fire truck Greg Bonovich acquired online. After nearly seven hours of work, the men saved the property. Get the full story in the video above.
