Bch GrL my sister-in-law was evacuated last night in Canyon Country,and she lives at Linda Vista & Sierra Hwy and the fire did not make it that way because the wind shifted around the mountain.I hope the fire missed your house,and is ok.When I got home from work today I watched the smoke again fill the valley I live in, and could not see much because the smoke is coming from Stevenson Ranch Fire over the mountains into ventura county where I live.I went out to take some pics but my camera is broken,and I only wish and hope I can show you guys my damage done to my banana's.Hope all of you dont lose anymore banana's from the wind storm we are having.The Indians years ago called where I live "Valley Of the Wind's".
Jon you are so right about living in the SFV when we would have the winds blow night and day for 3 to 4 days straight,and the trees in the neighborhood would lose all there leaves.I lived in Northridge at the west end of the valley near Porter Ranch and the wind would just howl for days it sucked so much.Anyway I hope you are not close to any fires.
Take care of your banana's So Cal Banana Growers,
Mitch
