[Elecraft] California Fires

[Alan]

I'm one of the Elecraft engineers who lives at a remote location.

My house NE of Santa Rosa is still standing.  I evacuated my house 
yesterday at 3 am (I could see the flames on the top of the ridge a few 
miles away) and I spent yesterday morning and afternoon doing emergency 
communications at the Sonoma County Operational Area Emergency 
Operations Center.  I had been awake for almost 48 hours by the time I 
got to bed last night at a friend's house.

Today I was able to return home and am running the generator to get the 
fridge cold again and re-fill the water tank from the well.  I have a 
number of friends who have lost their homes so I count myself very lucky.
