    Yeah how's that fire doing? Heard it closed down Galena High school. I was supposed to be going there tomorrow but maybe not.:confused:

    Evacuations at Galena High have been lifted. They expect containment on that fire by noon today.

    I was referring to the fire in Emerald Bay.
    The rain is helping. The wind is not.

    Yep! Did it a few years ago in my Tacoma with @jberry813 and then continued on the other side of 50 onto Genoa peak and all the way over to the top of Kingsbury grade near south lake. Fun/easy trail with nice scenery. There is one slide/washout spot on the Kings Canyon trail where I think you'd want sliders on to be safe, at least if it's similar to how it was a couple years ago.

    @RelentlessFab, can we possibly go 40 double row on the roofrack? Do you think there is enough room for that?

    There was a small portion of fence between my back yard and side storage lot. I'm going to lay a curved, pavered patio that swoops back to a fire pit and so that part of the fence needed to go at some point. Well mother nature did the work for me today :D

    Well I'm attempting to keep the rack as low and slim as possible. About to start cutting test parts for it, we'll see how much room there is.
    I'd recommend the Baja Design S8 40" single row bar. Small package with big power and high quality. I have one waiting for me to get time to install on my 4runner so if you'd like to see one of them in person come on by my shop and I'll show you the light

    @la0d0g If you need help/ideas for the fire pit let me know. I put a gas pit in our back yard a couple years ago...I have a bunch of in progress pics I'll dig up later.

    Some sort of vacuum effect in my attic cuz of the wind. Came out today and found the attic access panel removed. Was about 15-20ft back buried in the insulation. Fun way to start the morning looking for it.

    I've had that happen before as well. When mine happened it blew insulation all over the room that the access panel was in....a fing mess. I actually thought someone had broken into my house and was hiding in the attic. I crawled up there first with the pistol to check it all out.

    We're an authorized Baja Designs dealer also. I should be able to help out with bundling lights at a bit of a discount to package with our other products also. :thumbsup:

    Tell me something. Are the Baja Designs or rigids really that much better than some of the cheaper options like Caliraised etc. Not trying to be a smart ass just really curious. I'm most interested in actual light output than simply build quality. Any advise would be appreciated.
