For decades, Doug McConnell has been the Bay Area’s tour guide, showing generations of viewers all the people and places – especially natural places – that make the Bay Area great.
His current show, OpenRoad with Doug McConnell, has more than once brought him to Sonoma Valley – and in a recent episode titled “Sonoma Fire Lessons,” McConnell examines a few Valley landscapes that were scorched by the October wildfires, and expresses amazement and delight at how quickly the land is healing.
