This has been one of the most inpredictable fire seasons I can ever remember.

I'm praying Grippy's house survives. Tonight should tell the tale.

thanks Richard, so far so good, if the winds stay like they are we should be ok.

How's it going for you???

Hope everyone's coming out ok for you Grippy and Richard! I flew home from Hawaii today and found out my brother's place burned down yesterday in Escondido. Luckily he was evacuated but just shows the price we pay for living in a desert!
Hope the horses are ok Richard!

Hey, Grip. Nice to see you survived the flames. We managed alright too. Hopefully gone for a long time.............
Are you going to be home for the next couple of weeks?

Is that 4" inlet a custom piece?
