Re: still burning
This message is from: Silja Knoll <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I am on the Larimer County Horseman's Association Evacuation Team. It is subgroup of our local horse club in Colorado that is trained in emergency evacuation procedures and has annual inspections for our trucks and trailers. We are dispatched by the local sherrif department as well as Animal Protection and Control when we are needed. We have been called upon several times over the last 5 years or so. Fortunately Colorado's fires have not been major the last couple of years. Contact me directly if you want more details. We are happy to help other groups get started.

This message is from: "ruth bushnell" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> This message is from: Genie Dethloff <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Many have mentioned starting to write disaster plans. Our local horse club will be discussing that tonight. I was wondering if there is a repository so-to-speak of sample disaster plans that groups can draw on when writing their own plan. Does anyone out there have one that they would like to share?

Re: still burning
This message is from: Genie Dethloff <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> My thoughts are with all who are struggling through the forest fires. It was good to hear Sarah's good news that her animals were OK and that Jeff continues to be safe. Many have mentioned starting to write disaster plans. Our local horse club will be discussing that tonight. I was wondering if there is a repository so-to-speak of sample disaster plans that groups can draw on when writing their own plan. Does anyone out there have one that they would like to share? It seems silly for each group to reinvent the wheel. My sister lives in La Jolla and is housing two friends' families and her temple is housing an evacuated old age home. Where she lives has been missed by all of the fires since she has lived there but they have had a road or two washed out with mud slides. We have had some bad floods in my new home state of Connecticut this fall but we have missed them in our area. Still people are getting smart and starting to write plans. Recently there was a training session for firefighters on how to handle large animals; I heard it was rather amusing to see these big strong brave men cowered by horses. Stay safe everyone. This message is from: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi all. Jeff is OK, spent some time resting today. He will be back out there tomorrow, the start of 4 more days on straight. If all go's well, then he will leave for home next Mon. The Santiago fire is still raging. Todaythey set alot of backfires to try and stop it from going towards Trabuco Canyon. The winds shifted and instead, it has come back towards Silverado Canyon again. -- Genie Dethloff Killingworth, Connecticut The FjordHorse List archives can be found at: http://tinyurl.com/rcepw

The winds shifted and instead, it has come back towards Silverado Canyon again. Jeff said that tomorrow, he is going to try and get up into Mojeska Canyon, to see where they have lost 12 homes at least, including one belonging to his firefighter. Still amazed at the e-mails and phone calls from so many Fjord friends. even ones from out of the Country ! Im letting him know about all of the good wish's and kind thoughts. On a funny note ( sort of ) My LQ horse trailer is at Jeffs Fire Station for detailing. Its current color is more ASH GREY, just after Jeff finished waxing the exterior, than white. He thinks that I should have a FIRE SALE.; / Oh, and the naughty llama's were found and caught. So basically, they got out all of the livestock in his area unscathed.
