How is Skillet, Nat and Santa Cruiser doing?

Anybody heard from them today?

Thier area of the world is on fire and 15 or so homes have already burned down and the official report is that 10,000 acres will burn before it will be put out.


That sucks.

Doing good here........pretty damn smokey.

Fortunately both Skillet and I are pretty protected, lots of property would go before it got to us. Some pretty cool areas to hike and mouontain bike have been burned

Ash was falling earlier and my son's school is closed tomorrow because of the poor air quality.

Minor compared to some peoples unfortunate losses.

Thanks for checking on us

One of the technicians at one of our customers lost his house. He works in Watsonville and watched the flames come up over a hill. He left work to go home and try to save his house. The roads were closed and it was too late for his house.


I hope all is well.

Sitting in Portland, on my way home from Hell's Canyon.

No messages on my phone about my house, so...I hope all is well.

Thanks for the call Dan, most appreciated.

It is in your neighborhood. He works at C&N in Watsonville and watched the smoke from his house while he was at work.
