Watching with disbelief the fires ragging in Napa and the surrounding areas!
Are you good?! 
I'll be in touch regarding my participation in the Rally. Stay safe.

My friends in Santa Rosa have been evacuated. Multiple Neighborhoods are gone. Just Terrible.

I hope Andy is ok....Andy you wanker, check in...

The whole Napa/Sonoma region is under siege. I think it's safe to say that the Renegade folks will need more than a route adjustment, more like a change of venue or rain check.

I hope they do get a rain-check --- and cash it in right away ---RAIN is exactly what the area could use.

Hope for the best up there and for the winds to slow down.   Give the front-liners time to get ahead of things.

Peeps, not to be too alarmist, but all hell has broken loose here in Napa. Cell and internet service is spotty at best, so this is a quick hello before it goes down again. Fortunes turn on a dime, we may be spared or equally we may be engulfed. As for the Renegade, all is still go as of this moment. I've the week off as all Napa schools  are closed, which gives me time to recheck the route for closures. Obviously if we burn to the ground, then I'll have to cancel and pass the hat round for fj parts. It's really 50/50

Not too alarmist at all Andy...  the fires going on up around you are big and with no significant containment yet.  I hope you personally are not in much danger...

We're chocking on the smoke down here in San Jose and keeping our fingers crossed that's all we get.  The devastation in Napa is hard to imagine...  A good friend of my daughter's lost the family home up there and I was really shocked to see the business burning by the 101 freeway in Santa Rosa.  Diane already asked if we should redirect to helping fire victims this weekend instead.

Keep us informed and we'll support whatever call you make...

Andy...glad to hear things are okay for you thus far!  I got within "smoke range"
last night (more this morning it seems) after 94 days on the road. The devistation just to the north of here is shocking to say the least.

I'm nearby and have nothing but time on my hands...is there anything I can help with?  Phone calls?  Renting a truck? Bringing over N95 masks? A few beers?  Just let me know if you need an extra hand!

I hope the winds stay manageable today. But by looking at the flag pole across the street from the shop, the north winds are blowing pretty strong.

The smoke is really rolling in down here in Oakdale as well.

It has been getting heavier and heavier all morning.

I have attached a couple of photos.

Andy, or another members in the area, if you need assistance please let us know.
