At random: In their history, submarines were called by many names such as 'eel boats', 'plunging boats', 'devil divers', and 'pig boats'. Technically, and by size, the submarine is a ship, but it has been called a boat since its earliest days, and the term is steeped in tradition. Submariners almost invariably call their ships 'boats".

The Detwiler fire appears to include the place that was Cowboy's place, site of the Bash at the Ranch.

Sorry to hear this. Can't remember too many trees at Gary's place but there was lots of tall grasses. Hope it survives.

I just checked the map. The location of the Detwiler fire is about 30 miles north of Raymond, CA,( the location of Cowboy's ranch.) It's between Lake McClure and Yosemite N.P. Cowboy's ranch is way south of Yosemite.

A few years ago, I drove a helicopter service truck on the Buck Meadows fire, just north of the Detwiler fire. It also threatened Yosemite.

So Cowboy's ranch is safe from this fire, but who knows what will happen next week.

P.S: Sue and I e-mail often. She's well aware of the fire situation.

I remember the huge water tanks he had just in case of fire to save the house.

Looks like the Navy was wise to not make me a Quartermaster.

Cowboy would have corrected your statement, QUARTERMANSTER.
