Hey KB

Your fire made the ARRL. Hope you're staying all wet?

KB we were evacuated last year for ten days because of the fires here in the Big Bear mountain area of Southern Ca. Now every time I hear of a fire I feel sick.

I hope you and your's are well and safe from the fire.

Now, I know one reason I don't live in California. I'm on the southeastern edge of tornado alley here, 30 miles south of Oklahoma City.

The Calaveras Cluster and Hunt fires burned within 10 miles of my hill. Nobody wished me squat! KB, you have made some real friends here!

Yankee with this drought going on in California we are really in danger of a disastrous fire season. They say that this might be an El-Nino winter and if so we'll get allot of rain. But the entire state is dry as a bone. Combine that with Earth Quakes and I don't blame you for living near tornado alley.

Good to hear all is well with your home KB! Those fires are really scary, especially this time of year when it's dry, hot and little rain.

How was the trip down south?

I'm just glad I live in Northern California, where I can watch all the action on the news.
