Yes. In fact I just drove past it about 15 minutes ago. They've got a good part of the area east of my house cordoned off. I'm about 8 or 10 blocks west of the edge of the evacuated area. I live close to Highland Drive and 3300 South, so I haven't been affected.

What about you? Are you close?

Glad to hear you're OK and weren't in the evacuation zone.

I'm closer to downtown, in the 15th & 15th area.

If it had been yesterday, I would have been a lot closer - I have my weekly lesson at Guitar Czar.

I stopped at Guitar Czar today during normal business hours and they were closed. Do you know why? The other stores around it were open, so I'm pretty sure it didn't have anything to do with the tanker.

Thanks for the heads-up. Glad you're all right.

About 4:45 PM. They're open until 6:30, right?

Yes, they're usually there until 6:30 but I've seen them close early if several of them have gigs.

Ah... maybe that was it, being Friday and all.

Let me tell you, this tanker thing made my day a nightmare. I left the house twice to run two errands, and it took me literally all day long. Fortunately, I was barely outside the evacuation radius, so I got to come home to my own bed tonight.

I talked to Gary from Guitar Czar earlier today, and they closed because they were in the evacuation area. The other businesses up the hill from them did the same later in the day with the exception of the Smith's. Hope it's gone tomorrow, what a sucky day!

I actually shopped at that Smith's tonight. Glad to hear you're all right... you seem to have been the most affected one of all.

You think Guitar Czar will be open tomorrow? I need some Straploks.
