Amazing! Oregon Live, the Oregonian's internet news group has nothing on the new and old fires.

These Green Whores who control the Oregonian are apparently spiking the news. There is zero mention of any fires in today's edition.

Thank goodness that KGW is doing a good job.

Here is the latest.

Absolutely nothing re the lightening, "old" fires and new fires at the Oregon Live Site. That newspaper is the Pravda of Portland, Oregon. The green and rat voting cults in Portland have zero concept of what is going on in the real world outside of their green commy commune of Portland.

The Cache* Mountain fire has now burned...

At the same time as the stock market crashes and burns and one's cash is in question, this seems to match it.  The tool in the Toolbox seems to be a sickle of harvest.

*cache (kàsh) noun
1. a. A hiding place used especially for storing provisions. b. A place for concealment and safekeeping, as of valuables. c. The store of goods or valuables concealed in a hiding place.
2. Computer Science. A fast storage buffer in the central processing unit of a computer. In this sense, also called cache memory.

verb, transitive
cached, caching, caches
To hide or store in a cache. See synonyms at HIDE1.
[French, from cacher, to hide, from Old French, to press, hide, from Vulgar Latin *coâcticâre, to store, pack together, frequentative of Latin coâctâre, to constrain, from coâctus, past participle of cogere, to force. See COGENT.]

Lightning Strikes Spark More Fires

PORTLAND - Nearly one-thousand lightning strikes hit central Oregon yesterday afternoon and last night. Firefighters are chasing multiple new wildfires, including one that has prompted the voluntary evacuation of campgrounds on Suttle and Blue lakes northwest of Sisters.

David Widmark, spokesman for the Northwest Interagency Coodination Center in Portland, says heavy lift helicopters are set to begin attacking the Cache Mountain fire this morning. It's now burned about 105 acres and is located on the Deschutes National Forest about 15 miles from Sisters.

The Cache Mountain fire caused campers at the Methodist camps on Suttle Lake and campgrounds and a private resort on Blue Lake to voluntarily leave the area. It isn't immediately known how many campers are affected.

Widmark says the lightning storms moved through the Cascades and up the Columbia River Gorge all the way to the Blue Mountains. They had lightning but very little moisture.

Lightning also started an 80-acre fire south of the Black Canyon Wilderness, near the much larger 747 Fire.

Looks like even God is offended by the watermelons treatment of our woods. He never said he wouldn't destroy us with fire if we went wrong again.

(only slightly tongue in cheek)

God Save America (Please)

Glad they said it was lightning starting these fires,otherwise the pc crowd would have said it was cigarettes,the thing they always blame when they can't figure the real cause.
