NAPA/SONOMA FIRES

[BDF]

Praise the LORD for fire-fighters!

You can say that again.  
I believe some of our fire fighters are on their way to help out. Don't know how much of a difference it will make but it can't hurt.

Praise the LORD for fire-fighters!

Praying for you & everyone else, stay safe & God bless the fire fighters & those that are there to help. Give a big thank you out to them from me.

My wife & 66% of the cats are headed to safety 
Better safe than sorry as getting off the hill in an emergency would be no easy task.
Only 2 routes out and when conditions change, 1 or none.
I'm at the little airport 1/4 mile from home where CAL FIRE has set up a heli-base and there is cell service.
This morning I walked the line thanking them all for being here & got some pics.
Some impressive birds heres from all over the west coast, San Bernadino to Aurora, OR.
Had a nice chat with the Black Hawk crew.
Praise the LORD for fire-fighters!

So sorry that you're going thru this but I'm glad you're safe. As you said, first Vegas and now this.

Here are the pics you wanted to share to the folks here on the DC.com community.

Hi All!
Thanks for posting those Vegas Charger 
I drove the Charger up to Medford, OR today & am out of harms way.
Hadn't been on a road trip all summer because of paint work (that needs HELP  )
Was scheduled to take it back but fires interferred. I am told our area is out of harm's way but did not want to risk it.
One downed tree or car crash & no way off hill...don't have to worry about it anymore and that is priceless

BDF made a friend during his evacuation.

Pictures like that illustrate how much taller and thicker the new cars are compared to the old. Look at how long and sleek the Charger looks compared to the Challenger.

This was in action in our neck of the woods while I was out of town.

I'm glad I was NOT there to see it.
I returned today at work's request as we are out of immediate danger now...
I enjoyed the 350 mi/ one way commute, car ran flawlessly for hours at a time.

Those jet tankers saved our asses in 2013 when the Rim Fire burnt up our county.

Way to go guys.

We got word that authorities do not anticipate any more advisory evacuations in my area.
What a relief, THANK YOU FIRE FIGHTERS & PG&E! 
Unfortunately for others on west side of hill the battle rages on. It is strange to get alerts lifting evacuation notices and posting news ones on the same day.
Continue praying for those impacted by this and those putting them out.
Those choppers may be at our airport for weeks putting out hot spots.

It will be our turn next. We have bush fires every year just like California (half of them deliberately lit). In fact they've started extremely early this year in the States of Queensland and NSW.
We can only hope we all come away unscathed with as little damage as possible.

It's a special kind of "sick" that does that, deserving a "special" kind of punishment IMO. 
Hoping you stay out of harm's way!

BDF made a friend during his evacuation. 

I asked him how he liked the Hell Cat and he said "It's tons of fun!"
He then told me how "pretty" the Charger was, said he "wished they'd styled the new ones more like the old classics"
and then walked off kind of shaking his head.

The 2nd generation Chargers are the finest looking, "Prettiest  " cars ever built. EVER!

Thankyou.  
We did come very close 2 years back but thankfully the winds changed just in time.

Fires are now under control and contained.  It rained last night a decent amount (1/2 inch or better) across the whole of Northern California.

Tally as of today, 8400 homes and structures destroyed, over $1 billion cost, 220,000 acres burned, and 42 dead.

People are hurting bad. 

[BDF]

I've never been happier to see it rain!

Looks like they have a suspect in custody....

Looks good on paper but the sentencing never fits the crime. They are let off to lightly.
