Half the people in this country are below average intelligence and you can't cure stupid. I know it seems like more than half but that just means the average is pretty darn low.

Our weather has been up and down. Should be close to 80 for a high, this week and last some days didn't see 70. Oh and yesterday was 85-86. We have been getting some rain though which we need.

Fire has spread over 10,000 acres and has burnt up most of the scenic area in the gorge and now has moved 20 miles west toward towns. It's jumped across the Columbia River 3/4 of a mile now into Washington and growing over there. Hot embers keep starting more fires. We are so dry it's not taking much. 93 today again.

[flash]

We got some much needed rain tonight and probably will get much more from the Hurricane that is about to hit somewhere in Florida , I feel for the folks down there as it looks like it will be really bad .

Us to we got rain. It is now warmish but not as hot as it should be. Kinda nice actually.

Here is the weekend forcast for my area....in case i dont make it.
160 mph wind...2 feet of water surounding whats left of my house.
And everything i own is scattered in a 5 mile radius.

carpoor, mestrod hope you guys stay safe. Just saw latest storm track and looks like it will hit the keys and up the east coast through Miami. If that's not bad enough 2 more storms have formed in the Atlantic that are right behind Irma. Hopefully they don't follow the same track. Good luck and stay safe.

Irma looks mad. Going to hit hard. Be safe. Fire here is now at 33,000 acres and not even one bit contained. Brother inlaw had to evaluate his house and took all his live stock. Now it's a waiting game to see what happens. Wind are going to shift tonight so that's a good thing for him and the fire, it will blow back onto the area already burned.

With the impending hurricane... I am reminded that this kind of thing brings out the worst in people. I really hate dealing with the general public.

Aint that the truth. I'm getting back to my old ways of just staying home. Always something to do here.
