Ever been the subject of mandatory evacuation?

Wild fires suck by the way.

Me and my friends were evacuated from our attempt to camp out in the Spirit Lake, Washington area due to the pending eruption of Mt. St. Helens. The snowy top of the mountain looked like a vanilla ice cream cone...then, a couple of days later, like a hot fudge sundae.
@greenmountaingal lol. Great descriptions...that WAS something

@questionWeaver We must have been a mile or so from each other that day.
I was illegally on the mountain ... I circumvented the police closures and went up a timber road ... well above the snow line ... I have excellent photos of the mountains around ... was quite the experience.

My parents were not pleased.

They noted the area I was in was 100% destroyed.

Yes, we have. In MT. Fascinating to see the forest fires so close but many acres were destroyed...

@CoffeeFirst I get it, but not really much of a fire buff personally.
CoffeeFirst · 56-60, F
@Pambi Totally understand.

No, and no matter how beautiful I am not going to live in a state that has constant, wildfires, mud slides and earth quakes

@Xena1234 Did I fail to mention that the Terminator was once our governor?

@Pambi Now, I have to admit I do love Arnold <3

@Xena1234 There you go. Common ground we share in the end. 🙂

Got a GTFO from an umpire once after I punched out a pitcher for throwing at my head 3 straight pitches !

@questionWeaver 😉... she was a big girl, and slow ... and the girl behind her in the order was a lightning fast slapper...so I put her on ... the hard way ... 😁

@TexChik Lol. I got kicked out of Brownies (Girls Scouts) one day for laughing while learning to fold the flag. But yeah, not the same thing...

Are you going through that now? I hope you have someplace to go! If you want to come across the country you can have the spare room here
Pambi · 26-30, F
@chuck7882 Indeed. Brush fires are like every other day here it seems. Very sweet Chuck. ❤

Ugh that really sucks. Hope this round isn’t devastating.
Pambi · 26-30, F
@summersong About 70+ acres outside of Luguna Beach and Aliso. Sucks.
summersong · F
@Pambi oh no :(
Pambi · 26-30, F
@summersong Indeed 😞

@CoffeeFirst I thought it was mandatory ejaculation 😝

My bro's inlaws have... They were out of town when it happened and the police showed up and my mom was babysitting their kids... Pretty hectic and unnerving when something like that happens during something that's not even for your own home and being responsible for the safety of other's children..

:/ Hope you're doing alright.. *Hugs*
I hear volcanos do too 😞
Pambi · 26-30, F
@terribleperson True that.
livingaloha · 41-45, F
I have friends and family that have had to evacuate Hawaii Island due to the recent Kilauea volcano eruptions. It's so sad, because unlike other natural disasters, they don't know how long it will last.
More than once. I didnt evac. But wildfires are a totally different beast than hurricanes.


Be safe Ms P

Where did you go?
Pambi · 26-30, F
@hlpflwthat I see... I was in Florida for Hurricane Irma. In Daytona. Couldn't sell your soul for a hotel room. LA has plenty.
hlpflwthat · M
@Pambi Yeah - they usually drove to Memphis from Biloxi. Betcha LA is a lil pricier. Bummer. Hope all goes better.
Pambi · 26-30, F
@hlpflwthat It's all good. And thanks. 🙂
