For the record and for a smile, appointing that Anthony Scaramucci as Communications Director is one of the top ten of this category. What was Trump thninking?

Scaramicci was hired as a hit man. He did his job and then left.

Thank you for checking in. Fantastic that their home is in good shape—with electricity! Putting on my Master Gardener hat—lots of trees, shrubs, and perennials etc. can be propagated by cuttings at very low to no cost. In the meantime, the property can be brightened by seeding or propagating annual flowers for the cooler months ahead. Such a relief to know they are on the road to recovery. God bless.

Fantastic news! So glad to hear good news for a change.

Sorry to hear about the trees. They make all the difference on a property. What's the probability of another strike.............

Hey Rod!

Great to hear from you, I was assuming the worst, but you seemingly have fared better than that.

So just what are you seeing for damage to your place?

I heard the fishing is fantastic post-hurricane.

So get out there and catch some!

We were very lucky here.
mostly tree damage and the fence and a few other things but nothing nothing really.
at my shop in Isla Morada I lost a 30-foot sign but that could be fixed and the other place we had no damage at all so we were extremely lucky we really were a lot of other people did not fare so well there is huge damages down here no question about it I hear FEMA has an app that you can apply for damages for damaged money if you need it but they really need to open an office down here.

It's even more muddled considering an Independant leads the Dems, with a partial populist agenda aka Trump. A fine cluster.

Not sure who the Independant Dems, is. Bernie is a Marxist. Is it possible we have lost the use and meaning on the English Language?

I don’t know why Trump is doubling down on Luther Strange.

So let me put forth my hypothesis - New York Values Donald is coming out of the Shadows.

It is about that time in the Presidential cycle to begin to make judgments on what type of DEAL we will be getting from this Businessman.

The next few months - through the end of this year appear to be the basis where we will be able to asses the good, the bad and the ugly

These dead trees and heavy underbrush has made these forest fires into furnaces which kill everything in their path. During one massive fire in Montana there were thousands of elk, deer, bear and every other species found dead after the fire. They become disoriented and trapped in the fire as their escape paths are choked off and succumb to the smoke and heat to be burned alive. These fires burn far hotter than any temperatures they have seen in the past. The average temperatures in the old forest fires or in properly managed forests used to be 700-800 degrees and now these blast furnaces are burning over 1000 degrees scorching everything in their path.

Those fires in Montana burned a million acres of forests--the size of the entire state of NEW JERSEY. Friends who intended to vacation in Montana's Glacier National Park, were turned away by the fires, and thick smoke and ash. Meanwhile, the Drivebys, focused on the East Coast hurricanes, pretty much ignored the western wildfires. A metaphor?

I'm right in the middle of the fires, the Montana excuse for news media has followed their Masters' lead in ignoring everything but the Really Big Stories out in Western Montana while the rest of the state gets

http://gis.dnrc.mt.gov/apps/firemap/ (Make sure you hit the "DNRC Fire Reports" layer block)

...and the only thing close to a metaphor I can think of is "We didn't vote the way the Elites wanted so we can just shut up and burn out."

Am I PO'd?

Haven't had any fires. Yet.

Friends and neighbors who have aren't really out loud PO'd, but between the rumors making the rounds out in the Eastern ranchlands and the absolute dead silence after those words get passed, BLM/Forest Service/USDA people might be more comfortable if we all were having screaming fits.

This whole situation sucks.

Just caught up reading all your posts. I’m so relieved you’re well and houses are in one piece. I’ve seen and read about some places just wiped out in the Keys.It’s such a shock to see damage like that in person. My prayers continue...

“Johnny, we’re in fly-over country, now, so close the airplane window until the nice pilot tells us we’re on final approach to San Francisco. The fires down there in fly-over country are God’s punishment for voting for that deplorable pig, Donald Trump. We’ll be back in our Sanctuary by the Bay in a few hours. In the meantime, plug in your earphones, and listen to Lady Gaga, Madonna, and their BFFs.”
