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.
