LOL! What are you doing reading my local newspaper? I've known Chuck Asay for 20+ years. He's a great guy with a warped sense of humor and yes the smoke of even a campfire gets on your clothes and you can smell it forever.

It's interesting following a local story that I know much about and seeing what the national media is reporting. They are lazy and report data that is several days old. They're still reporting we have only lost 25 homes in this fire, but as of yeasterday it was over 70 homes. And one group of homes was in a gated community and each home was a multimillion dollar home. Twelve of those homes were totally destroyed.

Also as of yesterday 13,000 households had been evacuated. Luckily today was a good day and we have a 48 hour window of good weather forecast. Hopefully we have seen the worst of it.
