West Coast Fires

Post by Dug »

Wayne, JP, all you guys out on the west coast near what's burning, I hope you are unaffected. If so, I hope that it is minor and you come out of it with all you went in with.

Good luck!

Just saw some pics an hour ago taken by a friend of my daughter's who has fires raging in their community.. they have their car packed and are ready to evacuate at a moments notice. Complete walls of fire two blocks down their street... 50-60 mph hot winds fanning wall to wall fire!

Wayne what area do you live in?

I'm south of you and inland I'm sure. El Cajon.

All most 25% of our work force have been evacuated from their homes.

Bad stuff for sure with no time line for containment.

Wow...

I cannot even imagine.

Gulf coast and Florida has hurricanes, Georgia has drought, California has fire and occasional mudslides, Colorado has snow, NE has ratty politicians.

Be safe, and I am thinking of you guys! I am pulling for the best situation possible.

Brewster, I am sorry for your cousin. Wow.

Kingfish, good luck to you and all your employees.
