Thanks Ev, yes have been watching. Here's the latest on their FB page:
Deals Gap Motorcycle Resort 2 hrs ago (as of 10:20am today).
Update: Deals Gap is ok the rain has helped put it out and fire crews where able to go home early this morning. The power and phones have been knocked out and probably be a week or so before those are back so please email us for info not call you will not get a answer. Gatlinburg has seen significant loss of property and still a ongoing fight. Again please keep all the men and women still their fighting that monster.
Having been close to burned out and evacuated for days not knowing --- it's tough. My hopes and prayers to everyone affected.
+++ Couple years ago Colorado Springs +++
Looking over the garage to the backyard behind - we were staged evacuation but have not been told to bug-out yet but it was so close.
Got the word to leave NOW - within minutes day was night (this is 5pm daylight) hot ash falling on me - last picture of the house before we left. It was like something out of a movie.
