We appreciate everyone's prayers and thoughts in Regards to the Carr fire. It is looking like 89,194+ Acres with only 5% containment. A very nervous time for all here.

Another Monday is upon us. Make the best of it.

Wow, all this time fighting the fires, and only 5% containment? Going to be a long fight.

This morning's report is a mixed bag....
98,724 acres, 20% containment ,

carr fire - CalFire

We've had 6 confirmed fatalities, 723 residences destroyed and another 5012 threatened.

A long hard road ahead of us, but the NorCal community is really terrific with support.

I’m glad to hear that you’re okay. Any thing you need help with? They pulled me off of damage assessment at work and are keeping me in the office. The Dr was not happy about my most recent asthma attack from all of the smoke.
