It was just a month ago that I experienced a serious fire close to home. Now it seems all of LA is in flames once again.
This time it was Sylmar, about three miles from home. The smoke was so bad I had to get out.
I was tired Friday night and went to bed at 10PM. At 10:48 I woke and smelled smoke.\
Not again!
I saw a red haze as I looked outside to the east.
By 2:30AM I had to get out. I called my dad and asked if I could crash at his place. I packed up all three dogs and headed out.
These fires have been a nightmare and over 500 homes, mostly senior citizens' were lost. Horrible. Unimaginable.
I had my own snag with a little dog bite I won't go into detail with. Let's just say it has been a long weekend!

Dog Rescue
This blog has completely changed its focus from daily blatherings about MY life to the saving of DOGS' lives.
It happened one day...I was searching craigslist for a car and hit the PET link. I saw the need to save Red Listed dogs from the N. Central Shelter in Los Angeles and I got Sally.
...I haven't looked back

Want To Help?
All the expenses for the dog rescue effort is paid by those involved. They all work full time jobs.
I've have been amazed at their passion for the dogs. A donation of even $10 helps buy supplies like food, medical treatment, and boarding fees. All foster parents donate their time and effort. . Thanks! . .

Woah, that's intense. Are you back at home now?
Hey Matt
Thanks for stopping by.
Yup...at home. Feel like I traveled to Europe. My sleep schedule is whacked, I ache something bad--George attacked Albert last night, triggered by a neighbor's dog at my folks. I got bit worse than ever before. Both arms got it, left arm bad.
Time for some healin'
All part of the sacrifice to save dogs...they can't do it themselves. Pain draws me closer to the Lord, so all is good. I have a high tolerance for physical pain...even when I lose little chuck of my arm! lol
You and the pups are in our prayers bro. Glad you're safe.
