Default California Fires

Concerned about some of our friends out west. If any of you are close to the danger zones please check in when you can and let us know you're OK.

Santa Rosa is where the worst one is and I'm guessing alot of pot has gone up in smoke.

So is there a lot of traffic headed that way? Maybe a convoy of VW vans?

I just heard that my elderly Aunt's house was destroyed but her daughter's (my cousin) house 40 yards away survived. Both of them evacuated just in time.

They are having mandatory evacuations in parts of the city where I work. Mostly to the east of us but some of the employees had to leave.

My uncle is in Grass Valley, the fire at the fairgrounds was only a few hundred yards away. He did lose his garage with custom pickup and Studebaker but luckily the fire crews saved his house. Be safe everyone!

We had mandatory evac. Should have seen the fxcking maniacs driving thru the school zones when I picked up the kids today. Never seen so many self-important people. Everyone freaking out. My neighbor had three families from his church come over to help him water down his roof, ridicules.
I know a lot of firemen, and I put my faith in the best firefighters in the world.
