You guys okay down there?

How's everyone doing down there? Does anyone need a place to hang their hat while waiting out the fires?

So far, all is well at Casa Carroll in Escondido (Hidden Meadows) ... but like the old Steeler's Wheel song, "It's fires to the North of us, fires to the South, here we are stuck in the middle again ..."

Keep everyone in your prayers, especially all the Rescue Heroes, fire, police, medical ...

We just got home yesterday and saw all the smoke from up in the plane as we were flying in. SOE is closed and Patty stayed home from work. We are continually monitoring the fire on the T.V. No one is supposed to be on the roads unless they are evacuating. This is bad.

I managed to dig a shallow hole and it burned right over me.

I think I used that joke when I was living in Simi Valley and it was burning. I'd have to look at the archives to check. Speaking of the archives...while search for photos to make the back cover of Gore Hole I found an interesting photo. I'll not post it, just describe it. Some sort of tutorial on comic book software was originally there. Now it has a hot crotch shot of some girl in wet panties and says "Offended, Good, that's what you get for steling bandwidth." WTF???? someone that reacts passionately to you linking back to their dumb site. I thought people paid money to make that happen. Go for a stroll down memory lane to find it. I enjoyed my stroll.

Hearing a lot of buddies have been evacuated. Romi was okay this morning. All reports are saying this is going to dwarf the Cedar fire four years ago.

Mr Goodson said...

sorry I was even slightly flip about the fires. Lord, I had no idea how bad it had got. I thought it was just malibu

I was right there with you until I heard from some of my friends.

We're fine down in Redondo. Although where I used to live in Valenca is another story.

I've been on the phone with Tom M. and Tom C.s wife Julie and they've given me the rundown on what's up with them. It seems like the whole county has packed up their cars and are ready to evacuate to somewhere else.

We were still there 4 years ago and we evacuated back then. We will keep you guys in our thoughts and prayers.

Tom M., you asked about Jeff Jonas' house... I think its okay for the time being... he's close to a high school that's being used a shelter, if I'm reading the reports correctly, so his place is probably okay.
