Post by: Jim Ratto on October 22, 2007, 21:45:06 pm yes it seems like all you rockstars are running from the fires... yesterday it was like judgment day was upon us. I was out front cleaning fish pond and gardening and all of the sudden.....WHOOSH....the sky was blacked out, the sun turned blood red and the wind went wild. It's miserable out...crap blowing everywhere and smokey. We've gotten 60-70-80mph winds at my place in Simi Valley. No VW on the road today. >:( Title: Re: clear blue skies....before the smoke rolled in... Post by: Carlos De Alba on October 22, 2007, 22:02:35 pm I spent my weekend at Glamis Desert riding the bikes and the sand-rails.........coming back yesterday there was smoke and dirt flying everywhere… Winds blowing so hard a few semi-trucks were flipped over. You could see red behind the mountains.............it’s ugly.....

I actually drove through one to go get my '67 and drive it back from Orlando in March. Smoke was crazy and they closed the interstate just after we passed through.

Nothing really near us in Simi, fire wise....we got lucky so far, but the winds are still beastly. I feel so bad for the folks in the fire lines. Yesterday we had really smokey skies and ash falling like rain. Our yard looks like a war zone....but if that is all we have to deal with, I am really thankful.
