The Biden legacy...According to Tim Sheehe on the Sean Ryan podcast #161 I believe it was? He's the new Senator elect from Montana and owns a wildcard fire fighting Co amongst other things. He's also an ret. Army Ranger...
He stated that the terorist group alqida (sp?) Has stated they intend to attack us on the west coast from LA to Washington with wildcard fires because they know that's our greatest vulnerability.
It was an extremely informative and interesting interview about our current firefighting systems and vulnerabilities etc.
I highly recommend listening to it to gain a more comprehensive and complete understanding of the highly vulnerable state we are in. It's truly mind boggling & crazy.....
If it does that. Or even the lower lagoon. I’m fucked along with about 300+ other homes.

Holy fuck well I finally left and as we were leaving, there are 10 + firetrucks at least coming up our street ready to save our homes not wanting to be emotional, but it’s pretty impressive@Mr. C
Please chose the safety and we'll being of YOU and your family over pride and manliness for lack of a better term. Good luck to you and your family. I hope this fire leaves you and your neighbors, friends etc. unscathed.

Pack more clothes & some wine, grab a cooler fill it with some food & snacks
What ever you think you’ll need to get back on your feet if the worst thing happens
Take down your sun shades sails in the back yard
Best to you and everyone else in the area. I hope that they are able to better manage the fire this time.Did all the above. But I forgot my vodka. Got the wine and stuff though. Lol
All shades down or closed and wet down thoroughly.
Did what we could.

Newsom can’t have anymore devastationAir Attack has requested all available (8) National Guard MAFFS air tankers.
I'm a recent listener and they are really good interviews with great, interesting interviewees.One of my favorite pod casts
Where are those based, and how long to get them on scene?with the addition of the 8 National Guard tankers, that will make 16 (or so )tankers, hoping this will be the answer.
Hopefully soon. No disrespect or anything like that intended. These people are working their asses off. My heart felt thanks go out to all of them. Whether they can save my house or not.Where are those based, and how long to get them on scene?
3 are out of Mugu. But they brought in additional from Wyoming and Nevada during palisades fire. 2 are inbound nowWhere are those based, and how long to get them on scene?
Holly shit that's pucker factor close.
I'm thinking of you and your wife, and sending energy your way for a positive outcome.My wonderful wife has been doing exactly that
We have everything documented. And everything that is not replaceable in our cars.
Things change recently so I might have to give up my manhood and just go soon.
I must say. It’s fucking tough even thinking about leaving.
Different perspective for sure when it’s on you.
I told my wife. Take one of the cars the dog and go. I’ll leave when I neeed to.
She had none of that so I will have leave before she feels totally helpless.
