Holy S#!%! The fire started heading South last night toward Manitou Springs! All of Manitou is under mandatory evacuation. The fire has now forced 7000 evacuations and has burned more than 2500 acres.
Forum members, if you are being evac'd and don't have a place to stay, please PM me.
I'm in Pleasant Valley (south of the east entrance to Garden of the Gods, less than a mile south of Gateway road).
I'm sure the fire will never get here but we're on edge waiting to see of we get stuck with an evacuation order anyway.

Just like the other thread; if anyone needs help evacuating guns and animals, let me know.

Stay safe everyone!
Light a fire for a man, and he'll be warm for a day, light a man on fire, and he'll be warm for the rest of his life...
Discussion is an exchange of intelligence. Argument is an exchange of
ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?
So that's eerie ... watching Channel 11 and they show a tanker plane flying over the fire ... and we can hear the tanker plane outside at the same time.![]()

Didn't see any general threads about this; mods, feel free to merge if I missed them.
Prayers to those fighting and those affected!
