See you all later. We've been asked to leave for a while as a precaution.
Houses about 1/4 mile above us are on fire!

I'll keep you all posted when we come back!

Ladies and Gentlemen,

You've all heard the phrase "When it rains it pours" Like I don't have
enough, the out of control fire in my area is now truly out of control.

Some of you may remember that I live in Rancho Cucamonga, Southern
California! We've had fire going on since Tuesday, and it's getting

bigger.
We have winds of about 20-40 mph fanning the flame!. As I sit here

typing,
I am looking out of my window at flames some 100 feet or so high less than

5
miles from me.

They've started voluntary evacuation in my neighborhood. Two streets

above
me has mandatory evacuation! Truck and trailer loaded ready for any
mandatory evacuation.

So far my family is ok, we are all fine, even the fish are fine.We have so
much ash and burning material falling in our pond. The Ph is dropping

fast,
and my brother who lives a street above me and also has a pond just had a

Ph
crash, with ammonia spike through the roof. Our local pond shop is

advising
all porgs to get zeolite ready and to keep doing partial water change to
control the un-avoidable crash from the ash.

Life goes on.
