I don't know about nerves of steel, more like a feeling of helplessness(?), there is absolutely nothing I can do about the situation at this point. The fire moved so fast yesterday that we did not anticipate it making it over there and would not have tried to move vehicles. I actually slept pretty well.

I'm hoping the best for all the folks impacted by this one!
Also hope the Mullins museum/ Bugatti collection survives, I can't help but worry about these special collections at risk. I was sweating for a special Porsche collection in Santa Rosa too, it survived.
Part of me feels this concern about stuff in the face of these huge disasters is sick on my part. But some stuff is special and not replaceable. What can I say, I'm a car guy.
I hope you get good news this morning Denis.

Some stuff is more special than other stuff, for sure. The newest brush fire this morning is in Bel Air and threatening the Getty Center, that would be a lot of priceless art that makes even the rarest Ferrari look like a box of cereal.
