My Neighborhood is on fire

[Hugh R]

My house is OK, but its all around us.

[foxpaws]

Oh Hugh, how awful.

I hope your house and your neighborhood remains OK - be safe!!!!

[GWN7]

Put the sprinklers out. Looks like you have a tile roof? Load all the family stuff into the motor home and evacuate.

[Jim Richards]

Hoping for the best for you, Hugh! Stay safe!

[Evans, Marv]

Hugh, that sucks! Here's hoping it doesn't come near your house. I'm thinking we are going to see a lot of this kind of thing during the coming months. Do you have your defensible area cleared? Here we have to have it or we can't get insurance. Good luck!

[herr_oberst]

That's terrible news!

Good luck, my friend!

[KevinP73]

I've got space available for anything you want/can move. If you need help just shout.

[Hugh R]

What kind of a dumba$$ buys a wooden house in brush fire hills? Uh, that would be me. I have the RV out and ready to load up with the original art work, jewelry, guns, etc. Everything else pretty much came from a store. I'm also heavily fire insured, like $300/sq.ft. Y

Yeah, I have about 200' of brush and grasses cut down to the nub every May.

[BeyGon]

Good luck. Save the bike.

[Jim Richards]

Is today your neighborhood's authorized watering day?

[Seahawk]

Best, Hugh.

You know what to do.

[creaturecat]

Hoping for the best possible outcome, Hugh.

Damn that sucks Hugh! Looks like my drive home will be fun. I've got a full size pickup, I'll be in your neck of the woods around 6. Let me know if you want me to swing by and load up all your Krugerrands and spoons! I get off at Calgrove going home.

[gacook]

Best of luck, Hugh; hope the fire doesn't get to your house.

[Hugh R]

Craig, its burning through Wildwood canyon, and towards Hart Park. Your hood.

I-5 is apparently open right now.

[rusnak]

I'm going to fill up the 500 gallon water trailer for exactly this reason.

Hugh, best of luck to you. Hope you come out ok.

[Porsche-O-Phile]

Again?

Ugh - I feel for ya. No fun to have to put up with it every year I bet. At least you're prepared / responsible and clear brush, etc. Still has to bite with all the sleepless nights!

Hope it all works out well for you.

[jyl]

Fingers crossed for you! I'd load up now, fire moves fast. Soak the ground around your house, probably won't do much good but can't hurt.

[Nostril Cheese]

A big thank you to the LA and Ventura County Fire Departments. Saved our asses more than one time.

[Crowbob]

If good thoughts can help, know there's tons of 'em comin' your way, Hugh!
