We spent a long holiday weekend at a family cabin down in the Dayton area. No cell service, there is a landline but no internet service hooked up. No TV reception, no cable service. Just a TV with a small library of mostly older family friendly movies. I love that it forces everyone to unplug and spend quality time with each other without the distractions of every day life. Plenty of stuff to do: A SxS, golf cart, zip line, archery range, small shooting range, trails, games, fire pit, hot tub, a small river to play in, miles of forest service roads. Good times.

Let that shit burn. The poles are gonna have to come down any way.

I've noticed an increase in burned out RVs in the region. Part of me wonders if some folks are tired of it and doing the needful.

Ingrats.

Seems to be affiliated with a disease here in western Washington.

Add Bob Newhart to the dearly departed list.

Has Seattle caught fire yet? I want to take pics of it burning down.

No. Just like we don’t have any major fires yet. Those don’t happen till we get a conservative leader.

Nothing besides the occasional RV fire- this happened on about May 23:
RV fire in Ballard ~May 23

And there was another one about 10 days ago- started by a grass/brush fire, possibly from a lit cigarette tossed by a motorist . It ignited utility poles, semi trucks and an RV…
South Seattle fire

ETA: I saw a social media video of the latter fire as it was getting underway - it was quite impressive- flames shooting upwards pretty high. If I can find it, I’ll put it up. Trying to stay frosty.

Rumor is wildland fire fighters have written off stehekin, fire cannot be stopped...although I'm not seeing an evacuation order.


Fastest update is the town is preparing, so probably a BS rumor, the stehekin bakery burning would be a tragedy.

I keep hearing that as well, they did say at the Thursday night meeting they have done all they can and if it keeps moving there is nothing they can do and fire fighters will be forced to retreat.
