LOL at all the notations (keywords) on the side of the page. You really don't like the Greens or Kitzhopper do you?

Lightning Strikes Spark More Fires

PORTLAND - Nearly one-thousand lightning strikes hit central Oregon yesterday afternoon and last night. Firefighters are chasing multiple new wildfires, including one that has prompted the voluntary evacuation of campgrounds on Suttle and Blue lakes northwest of Sisters.

David Widmark, spokesman for the Northwest Interagency Coodination Center in Portland, says heavy lift helicopters are set to begin attacking the Cache Mountain fire this morning. It's now burned about 105 acres and is located on the Deschutes National Forest about 15 miles from Sisters.

The Cache Mountain fire caused campers at the Methodist camps on Suttle Lake and campgrounds and a private resort on Blue Lake to voluntarily leave the area. It isn't immediately known how many campers are affected.

Widmark says the lightning storms moved through the Cascades and up the Columbia River Gorge all the way to the Blue Mountains. They had lightning but very little moisture.

Lightning also started an 80-acre fire south of the Black Canyon Wilderness, near the much larger 747 Fire.

Sorry, I did not realize you had already posted the map. Oh, well, we can click on the link and get an expanded view of the destruction caused by the envirowackos.

You're a great poster, Gramps!

I love your Keywords! LOL!

Never give up! Stop Rural Cleansing!

Re me not liking the greens and their poster boy Oregon governor, Kitznslobber:

I can still remember getting into an argument with my sons after they got brained washed 20 years ago in their class rooms that no one had property rights. If Club Sierra or the Greens wanted to seize property and stop jobs for critters, my brain washed sons thought that was great. My wife was half way in their camp and mine.

That started my anti Green feelings, and it has gotten worse with more spotted owl Bravo Sierra actions each year.

Now my sons are in my camp and so is my wife. The final breaking point came during the ONRC and Andy Kerr's attemped rural cleansing of the Klamath Basin farmers, ranchers and those who depend on the farmers/ranchers for their jobs and businesses.

I have seen these tinder box buildups in SW Oregon and N. Kali the last 5-6 years due to no roads, no harvesting of even dead timber and allowing brush to grow without thining or control burns. Places I used to be able to walk to the stream/river and wade in to fly fish are now overgrown with non native blackberries that prevent all but bears from going in and out.

The eco enviralist watermelons are far more dangerous to those of us who live on the West Coast or near a forest than the al Qaeda thugs/terrorists.

The enviralists can harm or kill us with their agendas on a 24/7/365 basis. The al Qaeda thugs/terrorists have to work years to commit an act of terrorism.

I consider every out of control fire a direct result of the agendas of the enviral terrorists of America.

If al Qaeda thugs had set those forests/wild lands on fire, people would be screaming for us to Nuke all IslamaKazi countries. Here in America, the enviral terrorists continue to push their anti America/American agendas 24/7/365.

I'll bump that idea!

Actually I couldn't find that NOAA map, that you posted when I was looking for it earlier this morning.

Thanks for posting it!

Two days from now we will be able to view the 7 pmish NOAA image of today. Then we can see all of the new fires.

[Grampa Dave]

Thanks for the kind words.

We all need to work on keywords to describe the terrible reality of the Green enviralists and what they have done to our country.

Isn't that a tripple negative? LOL.

Looks like even God is offended by the watermelons treatment of our woods. He never said he wouldn't destroy us with fire if we went wrong again.

God Save America (Please)

How's the Eugene area doing? Any hippies or socialists get burned out yet ;-?

[Grampa Dave]

Eugene is Eugene. Most of the anarchists and eco terrorists are on that burn America Tour.

Blackie keeps an eye on these Eugene eco terrorists for us.

"...were your family members camped at any of these sites..."

Hi, Gramps! To tell you the truth, I'm not sure where they camped this time. I just know that when they went to town, they went to Sisters once.

[Grampa Dave]

Here is the opportunity for all good Freepers to get into the face of the enviral fascists who have put a large part of our nation into the peril of becoming a flaming tinderbox.

Ebuck has created a great bumpersticker to put the blame on these clymers as we drive our SUV's and pickups. (Link to EBuck's Sticker and how to buy them)

[Clive]

do you really think that the enviro-nazis have enough brains to see the irony in that sign?

[Grampa Dave]

The elite enviral fascists are very intelligent, and this will drive them up into stroke danger.

Their sheeple, the Birkenstock wearing, dope smoking, and tied dyed hippies would not understand this.

Also, that sticker will ring with those who can think.

[Alamo-Girl]

Thanks for the heads up!

[blackie]

Stop the attacks by the wacko, extreme left-wing, enviro-nazis and media terrorist's on our Freedoms !!

Freedom Is Worth Fighting For !!
