Between what happened with my friend and these awful fires I have learned this week that my problems are very small. My thoughts and prayers are with everybody out there, hoping for a nice big rain storm for you.

I hope the smoke doesn't hamper everyones DLR meet too much.

are u alright Doll from the fires.

Yes ty Genie, luckily I am millions of miles away from the fires. We might be going down south this weekend though; hopefully it will be alright so we don't have to cancel our plans. Mouse's friend went last week and said that it was so smoky down there they left early. My cousin had to move out of college because of the fires. Hopefully it will end soon!

I saw on the news last night that they believe four of these fires were now caused by arson. Can you imagine the sick, twisted individual or group of people that would knowingly cause all of this destruction? I pray that they find whoever did this, how terrible. It makes me sick to think that while I am watching the news that whoever is responsible might be watching too and maybe not feeling any remorse. My heart goes out to all of you involved, people losing their homes, and all of the people on the front lines fighting this terrible tragedy. You will all be in my thoughts and prayers for a long time to come.

Just on the news today was that there were at least 1,800 homes destroyed. They also said that they have arrested at least two people with possible connections to the fires.

Can't believe I haven't noticed this thread until now. I'm alive and my house (as of right now) is still standing. I've actually be away from my home, between being on tour and needing to train. My typical day starts with training 2-3 hours in my backyard at like 5/6 a.m. But of course I can't do that so I moved down to a friend's house, away from the fires, for the time being. Still is a pain but since it's my job, gotta keep training.

On a lighter note, I swear it wasn't me. I love inferno, but I only set myself on fire. :P

There's a marine layer that came in today so its making things even more packed in, but at least with humidity in the air its making the air more breathable. The bad news is, the winds are suppose to change so all that smoke is going to be coming back this way.

But at least we haven't seen anymore new outbreaks. We just want to be able to sweep down our driveways and get all this soot and ash off of everything. And also be able to feel free to open up our windows.

Just came back today. The first couple days down there wasn't too bad, but today I guess the wind changed direction and we got a full gust of smoke. It smelled horrible and there was a layer of smog over the freeway. Watched the news and they said that people actually caused the fire! How despicable of someone to destroy tons of lives.
