It kinda looks more like Chester from the cheeto commercial to me.
That situation sucks though.

Damn, I had no idea about this fire as all that they have talked about on the news lately is the fire in Norht Myrtle Beach. I hope you are OK and stay that way and they get it completely out.

Quick update..
There's still no rain here but yesterday the wind calmed down so containment was about 50% last time I heard. I got called up about 1:00 yesterday. First order of business was to get all visitors off the parkway and shut her down. Don't know when we'll reopen as the uncontained part of the fire is partially on the Parkway. After taking care of that business I helped work on trying to make fire lines and breaks. Basically this means I am a grunt. I clear debri and underbrush, rake leaves and dig trenches. We set a few back fires to try to head off the fire as it comes up the mountain. I will be honest I'm getting to old for this My body hurts in places I didn't know could hurt There is good news for me. I just found out my brother, who is a smoke jumper, has been dispatched to this fire! I haven't seen him since Christmas so hoping we can spend a few minutes together. If nothing else maybe we can roast some hotdogs together. We'll it's off to take a shower,eat, and head back to the office. Today I just monitor the roadway to keep people from being up there. Please keep all the men and women who are really doing the hard work in your thoughts. They are amazing in thier jobs and give up a lot to keep everyone safe!
