The fires in California are absolutely devastating! I’m posting this to ask you for your prayers. Many I know have evacuated the foothills of California and the fire is zero percent contained there. It’s been horribly hot, terribly dry due to a severe drought, and the fire is jumping all over the place. There are evacuation centers set up for those who’ve lost their homes and many people who live near the areas are going there to drop off food, clothing and whatever else is needed.
I live near Mt. Diablo which is about 30 minutes east of San Francisco and about 2.5 hours south of the devastation. I am pretty much at the base of Mt. Diablo and I couod barely see it due to the smoke. There was even ash on our car and on the tables at the local coffee shop this morning.
I know this is not photography-related but I would sincerely appreciate your positive thoughts or a reflective moment for the devastation this has caused. Let’s hope the fire gets under control soon.
September 13, 2015 at 5:45 pm
Laura, I just read the article in the NYT and couldn’t believe how bad it is and how close it is to Napa. So sorry for the people of Middletown. Just horrible. Thanks for posting.
September 13, 2015 at 5:51 pm
Thank you Jane. It is quite devastating and it’s very large covering so much area. I just heard too that the ancient sequoia trees are threatened and that makes me so sad too. I hope this gets under control soon.
September 13, 2015 at 5:56 pm
Oh, no! Hadn’t read about the Sequoias. Ugh. So sad.
September 13, 2015 at 6:57 pm
Yeah :((((
September 13, 2015 at 5:54 pm
Im so sorry to hear this Laura ~ I hope you stay safe and I will definately keep you all in my prayers.
September 13, 2015 at 6:57 pm
Thank you so much. We used to have a house up there and it’s scary to see what’s happening.
September 13, 2015 at 7:18 pm
I can imagine! I will definately be praying for you all ~ and pls keep us posted!
September 13, 2015 at 5:59 pm
Stay safe!
September 13, 2015 at 6:57 pm
Thank you!
September 13, 2015 at 6:00 pm
More strength to everyone out there….so sorry to hear this
September 13, 2015 at 6:58 pm
Thank you so much. I hope we will get rain in another month or so. We need it so badly!
September 13, 2015 at 6:15 pm
I have been watching the news. So sad to watch it…. Hope the cooler weather will help.
Stay safe, Laura.
September 13, 2015 at 6:58 pm
Thank you Amy. I need to change the channel. I’ve been watching it for a couple hours. I hope the cooler weather will help too.
September 13, 2015 at 6:32 pm
Best wishes. Stay safe.
September 13, 2015 at 6:58 pm
Thank you!
September 13, 2015 at 6:35 pm
Will definitely be praying for all! Please stay safe and keep us updated on how you are doing!
September 13, 2015 at 6:59 pm
Thank you Kirsten! We will be fine down here unless another fire starts, god forbid! I do have to use my inhaler though.
September 13, 2015 at 6:49 pm
I have friends in Washington who have been devastated by the fires there. My thoughts are with all those effected by the fires and all those fighting them.
September 13, 2015 at 7:00 pm
Oh yes Laura…the fires up there have been horrific and I’m so very sorry your friends have been affected. I really appreciate the prayers!!
September 13, 2015 at 7:12 pm
I wished I could send some of the extra rain we’ve received this year in the East. I have a friend whose son is out there trying to get the fires under control. Those firefighters work so hard and put their lives on the line. I know the fires took some lives already…. Let’s hope the El Nino rains will hit sooner than later and put an end to this catastrophe.
September 15, 2015 at 8:35 am
Me too!! Wow…you have someone you know fighting the fires? They absolutely put their lives on the line and please tell him thank you next time you are able. I’ll say a prayer so that everyone stays safe and DEFINITELY for the El Nino!
September 17, 2015 at 8:01 am
Yes, I am always thinking about this young man when I hear about the fires, and his colleagues…
Seems like you finally got some rain moving into California.
September 13, 2015 at 7:18 pm
Truly sad to see. I hope things improve.
September 14, 2015 at 7:01 am
Thanks Victor. Me too!
September 13, 2015 at 7:40 pm
I am sending positive energy..and prayer.
September 14, 2015 at 7:02 am
Thank you Elisa. I really appreciate it. 🙂
September 13, 2015 at 7:49 pm
Laura, I saw the fires last night on the news and my Heart just about broke. The devastation is beyond anything I have ever seen. You have my prayers and I am sending Healing to California. So many people have lost everything and the precious forests are being destroyed. Please stay safe and if you must please please evacuate. Promise me, Laura. (((HUGS))) Amy ❤
September 14, 2015 at 7:04 am
Thank you Amy. Fortunately I’m not in danger. We are only smokey from all the fires. But I do have good friends who are affected by this and it worries me.
September 14, 2015 at 8:00 am
If I had friends affected by these fires, I would be truly concerned too, Laura. We all must believe GOOD will come from this. We just have to hang on to HOPE and FAITH. ❤
September 14, 2015 at 12:03 pm
God always has a plan!
September 14, 2015 at 12:19 pm
YES!!!!!! We may not see it right away but it is there!!! ❤
September 13, 2015 at 7:51 pm
Laura, I shared on all my social media. I will keep tweeting and putting on FB as the days go by. Love you and please stay safe! ❤
September 14, 2015 at 7:04 am
OH thank you!! I really appreciate you passing on the good energy. When it comes down to it, all we have is each other. All the fancy cameras and computers mean nothing without love and compassion. Thank you again Amy!!!
September 14, 2015 at 8:01 am
Sharing again today …. 🙂 And you are so right. All the cameras in the world mean NOTHING without LOVE. ❤
September 14, 2015 at 12:03 pm
❤
September 13, 2015 at 8:08 pm
so sorry to see this happening – stay safe
September 14, 2015 at 7:05 am
Thank you. I’m glad we are not in danger but it’s bittersweet knowing so many people’s lives are being affected. Not to mention our beautiful forests.
September 13, 2015 at 8:24 pm
Oh Laura. You’re beautiful landscape! Prayers are coming your way!
September 14, 2015 at 7:06 am
I knowwwwwww….ugh! The fire isn’t where we are so we are safe. We are just kind of smokey. But I do worry about the people being displaced and also about our beautiful forests. 😦 Thank you so much for the prayers.
September 13, 2015 at 8:34 pm
Very sad! I’m in northern California just 30 minutes from the recent “Valley Fire” and I actually drive through those towns to get to my parents house about twice a month. Very scary and sad for all of the people who lost their homes, and pets! Saying prayers and thanking you for asking others to say some as well!
September 14, 2015 at 7:07 am
Oh wow, good to hear from you! We had a house up there about the same distance away. (Do we know each other?? lol) It must be so devastating to see the destruction up close and to worry if you will be in its path. I’m saying prayers for everyone up there in our beautiful state!! Thank you for commenting.
September 13, 2015 at 9:08 pm
I was with a California Dept. of Forestry fire crew in 1979 when the wind shifted and trapped us for a time. I never been exposed to such heat and fear–fortunately we got out. I pray for our firefighters.
September 14, 2015 at 7:08 am
Oh wow….that must’ve been so frightening! Good God….so glad you made it out and THANK YOU for your bravery and for your service to everyone. I really think firefighters are heroes for sure. Thank you for contributing to the convo here.
September 13, 2015 at 9:43 pm
I can definitely relate with your concern. Having lived through three fires nearby and one coming up the hill less than 1/2 a mile away I know the anguish and stress it can inflict. For me there was only one way to deal with the uncertainty and that is prayer and faith that God’s will be done.
September 14, 2015 at 7:10 am
Anguish and stress are perfect words. I was near the Oakland fire when it happened some years ago and it is indeed frightening. It gets to the point where we do need to rely on prayer and faith in God’s plan. Thanks Pete and I really appreciate your comment. Oh and by the way, we will be home soon and then I can plug in my external drive to watch the DVD. My husband’s drive wasn’t working. 😦
September 13, 2015 at 10:22 pm
My good wishes
September 14, 2015 at 7:10 am
Thank you so much Derrick.
September 13, 2015 at 10:27 pm
Stay safe, Laura My thoughts go out to you and hopefully things don’t get worse. Drink lots of water and take shelter if necessary 🙂
September 14, 2015 at 7:11 am
Thank you Mabel. 🙂 Fortunately the fires are not in our area…we are just a bit smokey especially when there is no wind to blow it out. I pray my friends up in the fire areas are safe.
September 13, 2015 at 10:53 pm
Now Northern Sonoma is being hit they say.. I’m down in Newport…
September 14, 2015 at 7:11 am
I saw that. Ugh! This reminds me of the Oakland Fire. I remember coming out of the Courthouse (the gym that used to be on telegraph) and seeing a completely black sky. I looked down on the sidewalk and there was a burned part of a dictionary. Scary! What are you doing in Newport?
September 13, 2015 at 10:55 pm
i will pray for you and Dave and your families.
September 14, 2015 at 7:12 am
Thank you Gavin. 🙂 I think we personally will be okay but our friends up in the fire area are in danger or were…some have already evacuated.
September 13, 2015 at 11:15 pm
stay safe.
September 14, 2015 at 7:12 am
Thank you.
September 13, 2015 at 11:19 pm
A sad state of affairs. Fight fire with water.
September 14, 2015 at 7:13 am
Sure is Tommy. And we have a horrible drought too. Hopefully the El Nino predicted at the end of October will come sooner.
September 14, 2015 at 2:03 pm
Yes, Laura, I see the coverage on the news on the Gold Coast.
September 14, 2015 at 12:18 am
We see it on the news, our prayers are with you and the thousands of other folks
September 14, 2015 at 7:13 am
Thank you so much for thinking of everyone who is in danger…and our beautiful forests.
September 14, 2015 at 1:28 am
Every now and then we have simular fires here in the Western Cape, south Africa. Seen it jumping once on a mountain: 10 km in a few hours. Last year a relative minor fire came in the global news. But than that was Cape Town; they are even selling their fires as a special. That fire only less than 2000 hectare (5000 acres). The year before it was here: more houses threatened and a surface of 25000 hectare (approx 62000 acres) … It did not even get into the national newspapers. The pictures I saw on your FB-page are very much alike (sphere) the ones I made here. This kind of fires are devastating. Especially for the people who live in those fire-prone areas. Broad fire lanes (depening on height trees: 20 to 50 meters wide) can protect houses in populated areas Plus secured water supply. It saved here many houses.
September 14, 2015 at 7:17 am
Wow it didn’t get into the national news??? That’s amazing. I wonder why? Here they are in the news even more because of multiple things…the drought, our ancient redwood trees which are being threatened, and the fact that we had a fire here in the bay area called the Oakland Hills Fire in 1991 which actually changed fire response procedures. The problem up in these fire areas are that there are just miles and miles and miles of trees and deep canyons which make it hard for firefighters to control. 😦 I’m glad to hear that many houses were saved in the one near you. They are so frightening! Thanks for commenting Herman.
September 14, 2015 at 8:36 am
The news here is very much political motivated. Cape Town always want to be in the news (tourism) and they paid the New York Times 17 million dollars in advertisement fees (subsidising tour operators, etc.) to get chosen as World Destination numero uno last year. South Africa is a fascinating and challenging country still with one foot in ancient tribal cultures. The tribal languages don’t have a word for ‘corruption’ so officially it does not exist although the president (the biggest pocket filler) says in an English spoken speech that he we root out corruption. In his own language he says that what the ‘others’ call ‘corruption’ does not exist… 😉
September 14, 2015 at 12:06 pm
I struggle with truth in my life…I NEED to believe that what someone says to me is the truth and that I can count on them. I’ve had such issues with that growing up. Lately in today’s world, things that are said are not backed up with any meaning whatsoever. Our country has its share of saying great things and then not doing a blessed thing. *sighs* It’s interesting to know the details of South Africa and paying the NYT to call them a World Destination. I never believe those things because I’ve seen ads on tv that say “Come to Ohio!” I’m like…what is in Ohio??? haha. Sorry Ohio-ans…just making a point here. So sad Herman. I would like to visit South Africa one day. My husband and I talk about that frequently.
September 15, 2015 at 2:07 am
The truth is between the lines Laura. Indeed never believe those tourist ads. Cape Town is a nice city on its own but it does nor represent South Africa at all. The true South Africa journey begins 100 km beyond Cape Town. If you go to the different countries in the Middle East you will hear a different story as what you read in the US-newspapers. The refugees travelling to different European countries is a problem caused by the USA and the UK but none of those 2 countries is willing to take responsibilities for this human drama. Etc. Etc.
BTW I love Ohio 😉
Herman
September 15, 2015 at 8:32 am
And don’t forget Russia. Russia is involved too. Somehow the U.S. gets blamed for everything yet we do the most for the world. There are good and bad aspects and I won’t pretend that I don’t know the bad because I do. And yes, I agree that one area cannot represent the entire country. It’s like coming to SF and thinking the rest of the country is like us. NOT!! And Ohio is definitely not like SF haha. I’m glad I live in the part of the country that “seems” to have a lot of compassion for the refugees. It’s a HUMANE thing to want to help but somehow our country always likes to boil things down to dollars and cents. We have so much space in this huge country and yes we can’t take care of what we have already…our roads are crumbling, etc., but when push comes to shove we need to help people because it’s the right thing to do. I heard a frightening thing by someone on the news saying we can’t take people because of money. It made me sick. 😦 We are the richest country! Of COURSE we can help! GEEZZZZZ
September 14, 2015 at 3:11 am
Laura I’m so sorry to hear what’s happening where you are. I’m in the UK and not heard much about it but just looked on the weather channel to see the terrible situation you guys are having to try and deal with. There’s an image on there from space which shows how large and intense the fires are. They are forecasting rain is heading your way very soon so I hope it gets to you quickly and helps stop further devastation. Stay safe.
September 14, 2015 at 7:18 am
I notice it’s cloudy out today but humid which is weird for this area. We hardly ever get humidity so hopefully this is a good sign! Thank you for taking an interest and I really appreciate your concern and your thoughts here!
September 14, 2015 at 4:43 am
Positive thought for you and all of CA for some relief…
September 14, 2015 at 7:18 am
Thank you Robert. We really need it.
September 14, 2015 at 4:48 am
Our prayers and best wishes for all those who are affected by this tragedy
September 14, 2015 at 7:18 am
Thank you Ravi. I know all this positive energy is helping…I just know it!
September 14, 2015 at 5:22 am
We will keep you in our thoughts and prayers
September 14, 2015 at 7:18 am
Much appreciated Dan, thank you!
September 14, 2015 at 5:26 am
Praying for all concerned! I knew it must be really bad out in CA and WA because our skies in CO were overtaken by all the smoke from those fires. God bless you all!
September 14, 2015 at 7:19 am
Oh wow…amazing how the smoke can travel so far! Thank you so much for the prayers and blessings.
September 14, 2015 at 7:09 am
Such a tragedy! I’m sending all kinds of positive vibes out to the area. I hope they get it controlled soon.
September 14, 2015 at 7:22 am
Thank you so much Mary. Everyone really appreciates all the positive energy. Thank you for posting. 🙂
September 14, 2015 at 8:46 am
My prayers are with you and everyone else too. I think we’ve sent you some firefighters…keep well and wear a mask (to stave off the nasties in fire smoke). Best regards, janina xox
September 14, 2015 at 9:56 am
Thank you so much Janina. I really appreciate your concern and thoughts. 🙂
September 14, 2015 at 12:07 pm
Thank you for sending us fire fighters! I noticed that they are coming from around the U.S. Thank goodness. It’s not as smokey today and I think we might be expecting a few drops.
September 14, 2015 at 8:50 am
prayers being sent Laura!
September 14, 2015 at 9:56 am
Thank you Hana!
September 14, 2015 at 9:35 am
Reblogged this on Petals Unfolding and commented:
My friend Laura lives in California where forest fires are raging out of control. I am asking for your help in any way you can with your social media so that more people are praying for those in California who are suffering such great loss and for the precious forests that are being destroyed. Comments are closed. Please go to Laura’s blog to comment or to share. Thank you and Bless you! Love, Amy ❤
September 14, 2015 at 9:57 am
You are so sweet to reblog this Amy, THANK YOU!!! I will post this blog on my FB as well to let everyone know how supported they are! Wow amazing.
September 14, 2015 at 10:10 am
When it comes to situations like this, I just feel we ALL must decide to jump in with both feet reaching out with Love, letting those who are suffering that we really care. Imagine, Laura, if everyone who saw my reblog, if everyone who saw your post, would turn to their social media to help spread the word that prayers are so needed. I believe it is high time we ALL support one another in LOVE. I Love YOU, Laura! (((HUGS))) Amy ❤
September 14, 2015 at 12:10 pm
I think that we need more of this support for each other in the world instead of always pointing fingers and looking at the negative. I’ve met so many who don’t forgive or take the time to understand because they are only concerned with themselves. Thank you for being such a giving person!
September 14, 2015 at 12:21 pm
With people in the world like you and me and more and more I have seen, LOVE will WIN. It has to. For that is who we are. Let’s move past the unforgiveness and selfishness and work together as we were meant to!!! ❤ ❤ ❤
September 14, 2015 at 12:08 pm
Thank you for reblogging this post Amy! I really appreciate you spreading the news so we can get as many positive thoughts and prayers over this devastating situation!!
September 14, 2015 at 12:20 pm
Hoping and praying others are doing the same, Laura. We are all ONE family and it is really time others realize this. I will keep on sharing this during the day today!!! Love you! ❤
September 14, 2015 at 12:54 pm
xoxoxo !
September 14, 2015 at 9:49 am
I hope that no one has been injured…
September 14, 2015 at 9:58 am
I think a couple firefighters but they will be ok from what I’ve heard. Thank you for asking and that is a huge thing to be thankful for…that nobody has been seriously hurt.
September 14, 2015 at 10:29 am
compassionately
bringing awareness!
i’ve been breathing
the smokey orange air
for the past couple days 😦
September 14, 2015 at 12:01 pm
Ohh…that’s right! I hope this all gets under control soon. I use an inhaler if it gets bad here. Today isn’t as bad but still hazy out. Thank you for your compassionate awareness. 😀
September 14, 2015 at 11:51 am
Oh Laura, this is very sad. I send healing to California and please stay safe.
September 14, 2015 at 12:01 pm
Thank you Irene. It’s scary for so many people!
September 14, 2015 at 11:58 am
Hope the devastation is not much and the fire is contained soon.
September 14, 2015 at 12:01 pm
Thank you so much Alok. I truly appreciate your kind words.
September 14, 2015 at 12:02 pm
I’m glad to hear that nobody has been injured. Hopefully, the situation will begin to improve soon.
September 15, 2015 at 8:34 am
Well there were some deaths since you posted this but hopefully that will be all. Very scary.
September 14, 2015 at 12:04 pm
Adding yet more thoughts and prayers to all over in California.. I have been sending out my thoughts and prayers since watching here in the UK the fires spreading… I came via Amy’s repost..
Love and Blessings to you all..
Sue
September 14, 2015 at 12:14 pm
It is so hard to watch. Here’s to praying for rain and NO lightning. El Nino can’t start soon enough.
September 14, 2015 at 12:17 pm
It really is. 😦 And omg yes…NO lightening!!! Thank you for commenting Eliza.
September 14, 2015 at 12:32 pm
Stay safe .. Lots of positive thoughts
September 14, 2015 at 12:54 pm
Thanks Julie! I’ll be safe way down here. Definitely not heading north or east!
September 14, 2015 at 12:39 pm
Thank you very much for posting this. I live in WA State and we have been having terrible fires also. My husband in the National Guard has been gone 3 weeks helping to evacuate people. I will keep California in my prayers as well.
September 14, 2015 at 12:56 pm
Oh WOW…Claire….your husband is a hero. I’ve heard about the fires there too. It’s just awful. 😦 I will say prayers for your area as well and that your husband stays safe. Thank him for me! And thank you for your support here. 🙂
September 14, 2015 at 12:59 pm
Thank you so much! You’re very kind. I hope that soon we will all have some relief. Please stay safe!
September 14, 2015 at 12:48 pm
Thoughts and prayers are with everyone dealing with the terrible fires in the west this year. We’ve had several big ones in Oregon, too. Its devastating.
September 14, 2015 at 12:56 pm
The whole west coast is on fire! So sad. 😦 Thank you so much for your comment and prayers.
September 14, 2015 at 12:52 pm
Shared again at 4pm EST. Love you, Laura! ❤
September 14, 2015 at 12:56 pm
Thank you!!!
September 14, 2015 at 1:02 pm
❤ ❤ ❤
September 14, 2015 at 1:11 pm
Yes. Horrible! You will continue to be in our thoughts and prayers.
September 14, 2015 at 1:13 pm
Thanks Elen 🙂
September 14, 2015 at 5:04 pm
You and all those affected have our prayers. We know that area very well, and it is devastating to see such loss. We understand how unpredictable wildfires are and how quickly they can spread, because we came very close to losing our previous Florida home in a wildfire years ago. And we well remember the heartache for those who suffered from the Oakland Hills fire too. Prayers and hugs.
September 14, 2015 at 5:18 pm
Thank you Pam. I had no idea you almost lost your home in a wildfire. That must’ve been so frightening! I’m glad that you made it through. I heard that one of the fires is now 40% contained here so that’s good news.
September 14, 2015 at 5:22 pm
That is progress! Let’s hope for more.
September 14, 2015 at 11:50 pm
I saw the horrible pictures. So sad to watch the destruction. Hopefully rain comes soon.
I keep my fingers crossed for you – lot’s of postive thoughts from Germany.
Greetings,
Ulli
September 15, 2015 at 8:28 am
Thank you Ulli! The fire is 15% contained this morning so they are making progress. I went to follow your blog but I don’t speak German. 😦
September 15, 2015 at 10:22 am
The fire department is so tireless and skillfull.
Take care, Laura.
Thank you for following, you’re very welcome.
Kind regards,
Ulli
September 15, 2015 at 2:10 am
Terrible Laura – keep safe.
September 15, 2015 at 8:35 am
Thank you!
September 15, 2015 at 9:36 am
This has only just started to hit the news over here in the UK….I feel for anyone caught up in this it must be scary and terrible. I hope that you and your loved ones stay safe. Please take care Laura.
September 16, 2015 at 9:21 am
Hope you’re OK Laura. If only we could send some of our rain over to you!
September 16, 2015 at 2:43 pm
We’re ok here as we are 30 minutes outside SF and southwest of the fire about 2.5 hours by car. I think it’s becoming more contained which is good. Thank you for caring and yes, please send some rain!
September 17, 2015 at 9:31 am
Good to hear.
Re the rain – I’ll have a chat with the weather gods!
September 16, 2015 at 12:30 pm
He visto las imágenes en las noticias de la televisión y son muy impactantes. Aquí en España también lo
sufrimos y es lamentable que en segundos se destruya lo que ha tardado miles de años en formarse, es una ruina
para nuestros hijos. Espero que se encuentren bien y rezaremos para que termine sin daños
Un abrazo
September 16, 2015 at 2:47 pm
I’m so sorry to hear that Spain has experienced similar issues. Our big sequoia trees in one of the state parks was endangered but I think the ancient trees are ok for now. Thank you so much for your kind words Pepe! And thank goodness for Google translator! 🙂
September 17, 2015 at 10:11 am
My thoughts are with you Laura. We have been having fires here in BC but nothing like what I have been seeing in California. I hope you are safe.
September 17, 2015 at 3:31 pm
We are safe Andrew, thank you so much. I’ve also heard of the fires up there. The whole western continent is on fire. 😦
September 19, 2015 at 4:36 pm
My heart is with you, Laura, as it is with our family and friends in central and eastern WA and on up and down the coast. Devastating and frightening, these fires! Be safe and flourish, dear Laura.
xoxo,
Kathryn
September 19, 2015 at 4:42 pm
Thank you Kath. Indeed the west coast has been dealing with so much this summer. 😦 Let’s just hope for a wet winter.
September 20, 2015 at 9:02 pm
Prayers sent up…
September 21, 2015 at 6:34 am
Thank you Laura 🙂
September 22, 2015 at 12:53 am
we also suffer with you, Laura… we follow California news, as we have “blood” relatives in San Francisco… ❤ can't wait to visit them before the end of this year…
* * *
my very best, courage and serenity… friendly thoughts, Mélanie
September 22, 2015 at 9:02 am
Merci Melanie 🙂

So many prayers I send, Laura!! It is devastating. I can remember quite a few years ago when we were experiencing wildfires in Florida…driving on I-95 we went through an area where the fire had jumped the interstate and there were still embers and little fires along the highway!! I couldn’t breath. I am sending all good energy that this ends soon ❤

Oh wow Lorrie. That is indeed scary isn’t it! I hope you and your family and friends were ok during that whole ordeal. Thank you for the good energy. 🙂 I really appreciate it and I know so many others do as well.

We were fine, thanks Laura. I hope the fires extinguish soon!

I wish that two weeks later the fires are under control. Haven’t heard anything on the news here, but I know those fires are potentially very damaging and sadly even lethal. Wish you all the best Laura!

Funny…I haven’t heard much on them either!

I guess that’s good news?!

You know what they say…no news is good news!
