We are back and going nuts. Came home Saturday dodging closed highways and on the phone the whole time. Seems like the whole state is on fire.

I'm on a few different emergency management groups and everyone needed something. Not to mention our power went out. With temp at 100+ at 9pm I had to ship the family (with the 8 month old) to in-laws to stay safe.

I should be here all day unless I get called out on a fire, and then the rest of the day will be shot.

I saw a lot of smoke the otherday. I just got here to Oklahoma for my training a week ago yesterday, so I'm not really sure what is where, but I could see it over the hill from the training center in Kellyville. I can't believe how hot it has been here lately!

Jim, wondered how the fires were affecting you. Hope you can get a chance to slow down and catch your breath. Stay safe out there.
