This
Season Starts Out with a Big BANG....
First
of all I want to "Thank" all you loyal "Desert Dogs" out
there for checking in. It's been awhile since I updated the DDH but you all know
it's
hard to keep
up on things especially when they are just a hobby.
This
season started out with a real shocker for alot of us local San
Diegans. Around a week before the 1st big weekend of the year
we experienced probably the worst wild fire this region has seen
since the 70's. A real bright hunter was lost in our local forest
(which is real hard to do since there are roads all through those
wilderness areas) and decided to start a couple of signal fires
to find his friends. Anyone who can count to "3" knows
that you don't start any fires in this area, since we don't get
much rain throughout the year. The brush is usually dangerously
dry for about 8 months out of the year. Well this "Einstein" of
a model citizen decide to do just that, resulting in 1,000s of
homes destroyed and taking the lives of a handful of people.
Many
local desert enthusiast lost their trailers, bikes, quads,
homes, cars and worst of all, their family heirlooms. We here
at Desert Dog's House wish these people the best of luck and
hope they get back on their feet real soon.
On
a lighter note, I missed this 1st big trip!!!! A friend of mine
decided that 1st of November was a good time to get married.
So while my buds were throwing back "coldies" in the sand, I
was watching my friend try to steal the golf courses' (where
the wedding was at) maintenance golf cart. He ended up getting
caught and we all pointed and laughed.
Peace
out home skillet!
