I've been watching Fox News Los Angeles coverage of Palisades Fire.

A quick note...As of about 10: 19 PM The Pacific Palisades / Los Angeles wildfires burned 2,900 acres and some areas were contained. And, authorities said it was moving west skipping over highways and out to the ocean. That is if the Santa Ana winds didn't blow it east. The force of these winds were predicted
to be at hurricane force reaching 100 mph.

When the Spanish Conquistadors first arrived to our western shore and ventured inland they experienced my home state's searing  hot temperatures and heat ... wildfires  stemming from just a spark of the sun's concentrated light on dry brush.
They named the land 'California'  meaning 'Land of the oven's heat'.

Don't like seeing single digits early in the morning (8 degrees) at 5:30 am.  Everyone take extra care.

No words enough to comfort and commiserate with those in CA.  Prayers I'm sure are coming from all of the USA.

Good Morning Beakers!

   

Overslept this morning! I think that is a good thing...  ;D  6 degrees right now, looks cold outside. But on the 'bright side' it will be in the 30s for four days, starting tomorrow!

Phyl, the fires in CA are so bad, heartbreaking to even think about. Danny doesn't live near that area does he? That little X video is so sad. I heard on the news, a man desperate to get to his house so he could save his beloved dogs. Thank goodness he was finally able to get them out of the house and leave. Jimmy Carter's service was beautiful, watched the whole thing on MSNBC. I wish there were more like him, he was a good man. He is with Rosalynn now and they are happy again...

Lani, love the closeup of RLK! I checked earlier and it sounds like they are making some progress on the Horton Fire, it said 23% contained. Fingers crossed.  Love the camping dogs!

karen, awww, what a sweet Beagle Mom with all of her babies! I am so glad she and her pups are safe!

tsk, glad to hear nothing seriously wrong with your shoulder. Did the Doc agree that it was 'puzzle arm?  ;D  I am sure you know exactly what pt you need!

Lisa, yes, you got dumped on. Wouldn't it be wonderful if all that snow could be teleported to CA and dumped on the Palisades Fire!

In Winona, Minnesota, there is a tiny community that is one of the most unique in the entire world. Made up of over 100 houseboats - each of different materials, and all moored on a Mississippi River island - this little community is truly special.

I will be still about the complaint about my temp this morning.  Several of you have "best-ed" me. 

It could be worse - we could be in California.  I've been following FOX since about 5:30 this morning.  I have a lot of nerve to complain.  Their reporter lives (lived) in the Palisades.  Great coverage -  knows the area, has contacts with friends, wife is a backup source since she is also a competitor reporter, his daughter was to graduate next year from the local high school.  The high school is gone.  He had word earlier that their home had caught fire.  He didn't know for certain but he doesn't think his house will be there when they can get back there.  Just imagine.  But he'll go on until . . . he said. 

He said the news is already to be faced - $16 million house gone just like the homes in the local mobile home park.  With the sunrise the tears will be unstoppable.  Can't even imagine the values of the contents of all the homes/businesses.  Let's all say prayers for all - residents, workers, businesses, animals, pets, rescuers.  They'll need an enormous amount of solace and prayers.  Those down south have witnessed the value of our country's concern and help during their flooding.  It's now time to share all we can with CA.

You'll not be hearing any complains from me in the future. 

HUGS for thousands, again.

P


The beginning of a 4th fire front nearing LA just reported.
