Our Daughter Brittany has lost her home and all it's contents. Everyone is safe and here with us, 6 Grandkids,4 dogs an 3 cats. Our house is full but everyone is safe.
This Fire is constantly changing directions as the wind is shifting. We had some rain yesterday and again last night, not enough but we are thankful for any rain we get.
Please keep those of us being impacted by these Fires in your Prayers. 🙏

Let's hope we get some rain to knock down this drought we are in. I hope your daughter has insurance to help recover from such a disaster.

Glad that everyone is safe. People say that it's only stuff, but those things (and the memories they invoke) are precious. Sorry to hear about that disaster. We've got rain here today and would send some down your way if possible.

I have a friend who lost his Automotive Shop to the Fire. He was told they won't cover his loss as it's an "Act of God". He his now talking to his Lawyers.

Good that she has you guys to fall back on. We’ll remember all of you in our prayers. Sorry to be so late in responding. I’ve been out of commission for the past month with shingles of the left eye. It has really knocked me out, so to speak. PS: Get the Shingles vaccine if you haven’t done so yet pt | | | | | Joined: Mar 2007 Posts: 3,386 Crusty Old Sarge | | Crusty Old Sarge Joined: Mar 2007 Posts: 3,386 | Rob, Thankyou for your thoughts and concerns. Everything is settling down now and we are helping them put theirs lives back together.
I'm going to let them use our Camper as a Base Camp while the work on their property. It will at least give them a place to rest and cool off. They need to get all the debris cleared off before rebuilding can begin. They are talking "Barndominium", I guess we'll see.
Sorry to hear about your episode with Shingles, some bad stuff, I hope all is well...😁
