Fire is close to us, we're on standby notice and prepared to leave, it pushed to the east over night towards vacaville. Vacaville is a mess right now, large numbers evacuated and many homes lost, threatening to jump freeway to other side of vacaville now.
I hate fire season!!!!
Many thoughts and prayers to my Vacaville neighbors and friends,
Stay safe!!!
I'm no hero, I go at first notice, save lives, rest is just stuff.
Amen, bro.. You can always replace stuff..Quote:

Lots of aroha coming your way from us.
damn , that sucks . fire season is horrible. friends in colorado deal with every year. we live in the woods now but hopefully when we move there will be few trees close. be safe .
I would dread that more than the tornadoes we put up with, stay safe.
spent half my childhood in a root cellar .
Hopefully the fires were put out and you didn't have to vacate! Stay safe out there!
Fires are still raging! Very little to no containment. So far the winds have blown it away from me, others have not been so lucky. My thoughts and prayers go out to all in this mess.
That's good for you, but like you said it sucks for others.
Are you still okay?Quote:

The smoke is so bad that we can't even see Pikes Peak and we are 4 miles East of the peak. This is some bad SH--.
Smoke here is horrible, if you didn't know better you'd think you were fogged in, except it stinks and cuts your throat raw.
And more lightning is expected over the next couple of days. OH BOY!
Friends in the Reno/Sparks area have shared that the smoke has been affecting them too. Better residual smoke than the fire!
Saw this posted on FB yesterday, a CA strike.

Amazing photo! Hard to defend against that..
It would appear that Mother Nature is a wee bit angry.
Yes indeed!Quote:

I'm to the west of Fairfield, I feel for your friends and all that were effected. A lot of destruction in a mater of hours it moved way too fast.
