Title: Prayers for West Coast Kansan
Post by: Gizmo on October 13, 2008, 09:07:55 PM
Our prayers are out for the West Coast Kansan tonight.

WCK is a few miles from the Camp Pendelton fire in Oceanside.  As far as the news, he has not had to evactuate but from my conversation from him earlier, I believe he is packed and ready to.  For now, the smoking gods are favoring him and the Santa Anna winds are blowing the fire more away from his location than toward him. 

Here is a picture of the smoke (yes the clouds in the picture is not the marine layer coming in) as viewed from my house which is about 25 miles away.

Wow!

Fire can be one vicious beast to say the least. Thoughts and prayers are with you and your family WCK.

Hope things go well.

Been avoiding the forum today due to the "template parse error", but am glad I checked in. 

Prayers to you, WCK, and everybody else in the area of this fire.

Wow, a VERY nice post.  I appreciate the thoughts.  These fires are pretty crazy things.  We were about a 1/2 mile from the evac area.  Was a lot of smoke but nothing like what it could have been.  Just some hastle.  Adrienne was home packing the van and I could not get home from work because the police had the roads blocked off.  Eventually she left and we were both stuck till we could get home. We were real lucky all in all.

It is great to think a forum like this could develop such relationships. I value them all.

LaQ, eggs were great!

Take Care and Thank You all.

Glad to hear all is ok WCK, i was watching it on the world news, and  it was really scarey stuff!  :o

Anyway, it's great knowing you're all safe and sound, and i agree there isn't another forum/community like this anywhere on the web.  ;)

Just got back in town WCK. I sure hope all is good for you folks down south. The news showed some pretty scary fire shots down there. Take care and best wishes to everyone.
