So, it's been an interesting 8 hours. First, a big fire started behind the house in the mountains from lightning right at dark. It's 7 miles away and it's moving fast. Take a peak. Plan on reevaluating in morning.

3 hours of sleep in, my phone starts blowing up. A big client of mine, the local power provider in town is repairing downed power lines from same storm and stumbled into a bee hive in a downed pole. Sets off a nighttime bee attack. So, I'm headed to town at 3 AM to deal with the bees as folks are headed to hospital from bee stings. Fire looks sporty in the dark on the way in.

Y'all have a great day - coffee is real strong this morning...

I am on the side. My main job is bee removal from personal or commercial properties and subsequent construction. These specific bees got nuked as there were 10+ houses within 100 yards...

All I deal with professionally are feral Africanized bees...

Damn, I hope that fire stays away from you and blows itself out in the mountain.

Good Luck.

Rattlesnakes, Africanized bees, wild fires....

Why would anyone want to live there?

Hope things take an upswing for ya.
