Fire!

[cloud jaguar]

I live in the mountains. There is a giant fire about 2 miles from my house (Station Fire it is called)- smoke, ash, smell... everything. I seriously hope i dont have to evacuate all of my pets and books and case files and ...... aaaaah. Just thinking about it makes me want to drink a beer. Well, anyways, at least my kids are with grandma!

Yeah I can see the fire from where I am at too. (I am in North Hollywood right now, although I live in Burbank)

Looks like doomsday from here. I'm sorry, I hope there is no damage, and the fire ends safely.

Have a beer and relax =0

Saw it on the news. Move from that state!

 

[revmdn]

Be safe.

 

[ismart]

Yes, drink a beer!

 

[hibiscusmile]

save the beer for the fire if it too close, but run, cause it will spread, better drink it!

I can see flames on the hill above my house. no evacuation ordered yet but some things packed in case they order mandatory evacuation.

If you back the wilderness, I'd soak everything that you can reach with a water hose. And spray anything wood on your house. Leave the hose connected and ready to go if you have to leave. Best of luck to you, your family, and your mantises.

I seen on the news a while ago they are making people leave the area.

Yeah one of my friends had to evacuate today. We went to watch a movie in Alhambra, and we could see the fires very clearly at night.

And the whole area smelled like burnt wood.

Hopefully it gets subdued asap.

Hope nothing goes wrong.

Thinking of you and your family, Roland.....

I hope you don't have to evacuate.

hopefully it doesnt ruin my trip on the 31st to disneyland

I live in the valley so I am not that affected by it. We get smoke and the smell down here though.

I hope you all don't lose any any property.

 

[Katnapper]

Haven't heard anything from Roland in over a day here. Makes me wonder if they did indeed have to evacuate. Worried for him and his family... hope he posts again here soon.

Use a hose to completely cover your property with water. Send your valuables and mantids to a friends house. Dig a shallow ditch around the house and fill it with pebbles or water.
