My first GTG this year at Bothe-Napa Valley Park was a great learning experience. It was a pleasure to meet you all.

I was just last night thinking of digging up this thread for this year's GTG. Count me in.

Will try to make this one

I'll lightly pencil in that date, I'm likely to be very buzy relocating 90 miles to the East to Fort Jones, it is 3 and a half hours away by road.

Stickied!

Larsen donated a Husqvarna 51, and I'm getting it in shape. We could auction it ... Or keep it and run it ...

Noted on my calendar. May be pre-empted by family obligations or Veterans Day activities.

"The wildfire grew to four acres but was 100-percent contained as of 7 p.m. Tuesday."

"Eight-nine firefighters from Cal Fire, Calistoga City Fire Department, Santa Rosa City Fire Department and Sonoma County Fire Protection all responded to the blaze."

"Three air tankers, one helicopter and two dozers were utilized in containing the fire."

Holy cow! They are NOT messing around! That is serious firepower for 4 acres!

Yea, perhaps they learned something from the paradise fire?
One guy makes the decision NOT to send a chopper water drop before daylight and...
Would hate to be that guy...

 

[madhatte]

Gun-shy? In the fire community? WHY I NEVER

How about the NorCal fires that burned right thru there in ‘17. Number one fire until the Camp Fire
Yeah they’re a little edgy

Even slothful, negligent Oregon is hammering fires swiftly this year.
