Thank goodness.

It finally rained in Vancouver WA last night, thunder storms woke me up last night, I was wondering if they would start more fires, I have not turned on the TV to watch the news yet today, the closet they got to me was a 5 count between the lightening and the thunder.

It poured down rain last night and again this morning. Radar showed massive rain over the fire near me. Pretty sure it’s out very close to it.

Very good to hear!! I haven't heard any new updates about the fire in Santiam Canyon. Probably the same rain here as in Springfield/Eugene. I watch very little tv, most of my news comes from the internet.

I board a few horses, and I buy hay from a farmer in Wilsonville, I haul hay, 20 bales at a time in Ratsun, one of my 521 trucks.

My hay supplier has family, in Molalla.  

I heard a story the advance of the fire on Mololla was stopped by private citizens.   My hay supplier confirmed that.

 

I do not know how many people on this board are from, or know people people in Molalla, but thank you!

I received this from a watchdog type guy I get stuff from, sorry that is the best I can get with the image, every face pointing to a fire is someone that was arrested for arson.

He says,  And these are just the ones that got caught
Only the tip of the iceberg

There were just a hair under 12,000 wildfires in 2019 in Wash. Oregon and Cal from all causes. 12,000. Though arson is a detestable chicken shit crime, a dozen arrests is peanuts and not statistically relevant as a 'trend'.

 

Twitter is full of shit. Did those arrested claim to be Democrats, antifa, BLM??????? Has anyone seen any of them at 'demonstrations'?????? Or are they just run of the mill mental case arsonists. In which case they are the same as all other years.

I didn't say who started them, I was just pointing out that them fires had someone arrested for arson, I have no idea if they were associated with BLM, Antifa, or if they were associated with a certain party.

There was talk last week about antifa leaving the cities to start fires. It probably was just talk.
