    Some really cool shit
    The first pic is from a couple days ago. Hot, muggy, poor air quality due to zero wind. Second shot is this morning. Unreal. Eyes are slightly burning, nose is effed up. Feel bad for those close to fires. If anyone needs a truck to load up for evac, call me.

    Walnut Creek isn't bad yet. Tiny bit of ash and smell in the air.
    Drove to my office in Livermore - looks about as bad as what you're seeing, Don. Work off one of the last exits heading towards Tracy and couldn't even see the Altamont Pass.

    Our cars are covered in ash today and my MIL's place in Davenport was evacuated. They have taken off out of town because she has bad allergies/asthma, but her tenant who is a firefighter is staying on the property and keeping hoses running.

    I'm out here and Hayward and I had the Model 3 parked outside for a few hours while I worked in the garage. It was covered in ash four hours later when I went to pull it inside.

    I have family in Davenport on Swanton rd and I’m suddenly very concerned for them. Saw a fire map and their street runs right through the red.

    It's been awhile since I've been up there, but their place is right on one of the creeks that cross Swanton. I'm trying to find their address but not having any luck so far. I'm sure they would have been evacuated.

    Edit: They live right on Mill Creek, my grandma is calling them now.

    Some flags and center console divider... lots of things on the wanted list.
    Usually when done with a Dodge, you burn it to the ground or send it to the junk yard. The tundra will actually be resold someday...

    The clocking of my Y was a little weird, which resulted in this method:

    Ok yeah they are about 1/2 mile from my MIL's place. They just went up and grabbed valuables/personal items from the place. Really hoping the fire stays away as it is like our kids second home and where we do all family events at (and got married at).

    Sounds about right, was supposed to pick up some undercover swing cases from Felton today, but they got evacuated.

    Damn it's a small world. Their last name is Wilson and I know her and her kids run a cake shop in Santa Cruz. They don't have a cell phone or at least no one seems to have a number for one. We still haven't been able to contact them but they've dealt with fire there before and I'm sure they've been evacuated.

    I know it is not a "fully decked out" gourmet fish taco BUT, it is from the west fork of the Carson river. Heading back up this weekend for some work on the place and might have to wet my line if you know what I mean!
