Pigfish; Are you okay in your neck of the woods?

[SCgarman]

Ray is out there on the left coast hopefully not near all those huge wildfires. I hope all is well in your neighborhood!

[Fatshotbud]

I shot him a PM yesterday on a different matter and have not heard back from him?
Yeah hopefully he is not in harm's way!

I think he mentioned in one of his last vids, that he's pretty busy in the coming weeks with a contract, and so won't be able to log on regularly. Hope this would explaint it.

[Danimalia]

Hope all is well

[Customsfan]

Didn’t know he might be harms way.  Certainly wishing him well if he is.

Bump for Piggy, hope you dodged the latest conflagration.

Getting a bit hot near me as well but still a ways up north. Did see some smoke yesterday though. Lost a few dozen homes and about 25 horses near the San Diego/Riverside County line.

Ray is nestled somewhere in Ventura county. Sounds like things are bad there as far as wildfires go. Terrible to see homes burned down to the ground, horrible.

Here’s hoping Ray and his resident hummingbirds are safe.

Not good. It’s like a war zone. Anybody secluded has it tough, or is evac’d for safety’s sake.

Nobody has been seriously hurt, many displaced.

Best wishes to all affected.

    Yeah, SPEAK to us, Ray (didn't know you were absentee from The Isle of Man). Let us know you're well - please.  

[PigFish]

Darn thoughtful of ya’ll my friends... I will try to logon tomorrow.

Thanks for the shout-out.

Hope you're well Ray,

You have probably seen all you need to see about Isla Pigfish on fire... Most of this tragedy is east and north of me, as Casa Pigfish is a stone's throw away from the coast and the coastal mountains next to me have been spared.

The fires still burn in my area. We get a condition that the media refers to as the Santa Ana winds. This is contested some locally as a few of us refer to them as Santana winds. Nevertheless they have been very bad the past week and the static electricity causes all forms of problems. Of course so does arson, negligent action and downed power lines.

The undergrowth of the hills gets so tight and entangled that once these fires start, it becomes almost impossible to extinguish them until such time that the rH rises. The rH yesterday in the shop was about 14%.

I have been working on my new project management job (for others) about 12 hours a day. It is a 28 million dollar piece of a 150 million dollar development. As it moves along I may add some details, however I generally don't mix my 'outside' life with this forum for obvious reasons.

I am touched by my friends here thinking about me and wishing me well. You guys are my family and I love you for it.

Please say a prayer for my displaced neighbors... They really need them. While we deal with these events annually, no one ever gets used to it. It has been a terrible fire season all across the western states, especially in the north.

I will be back to contribute and do my share of raising hell and pissing people off as soon as I have the time...

Thanks for checking in Ray. Glad you are well.

[rckymtn22]

Good to hear you are alright Ray. As a guy in the wildfire business I have see the tragic consequences of fire over the years. Stay safe.

[JohnS]

I'm glad you are well, Ray dear friend!

[Fugu]

Stay safe there Ray! Wishing for you folks to weather all this without fatal casualties!

[Fatshotbud]

Glad you're doing well!
Prayers up for those in need

Can't wait. Stay safe.
