Fires out West...

Post by Cal_Gary »

Just an FYI that we're ok here in my part of Utah-the "Dump Fire" is about 15 miles from me, with no chance of getting up to our place. Colorado is getting it pretty bad-hope everyone is ok.

Thanks David! The closest fire is now out but lightning and high winds are still forecast for the next few days, and 90+ temps.

I hope you all stay safe in the fire season, mother nature can be unforgiving and cruel in an instant, have your fire prevention, handling, fighting and escape plans well in place and adhere to them to the letter...

Gary,

If you have to evac remember to take the important paperwork/legal documents/pictures with. Have all of this ready to go just like a B.O.B.

Stay safe out there.
