I was monitoring that fire a little bit and saw an article on the aftermath today on the news. Looks like it was pretty destructive. They were blaming part of it on the amount of rain we got last winter that bought out so much grass.

It's good you caught that.  Scammers are getting harder and harder to detect.

They sure are at that. It's lucrative because they by and large have no consequences. Most are off shore and even if identified their host nation governments will do nothing to them other than get a chunk of their illegal earnings.

I got a follow up email from Baja Designs today. They weren't sure how this criminal got into their accounts but they took fast action and seems like the issue may be stopped. Hopefully people don't open up the malicious one as they stated they believed it would open a link to peoples credit cards that have been used to pay for services through Baja Designs. They are a stand up company that makes a great product and local. It saddens me to have to live in times where so much crime is committed by criminals using a computer.

A follow up from the Calcite Mine trip: The park service in it's infinite wisdom has gone through and graded the entirety of the road. Now an off the shelf cross over SUV's can get up there without issue. It was never a big challenge but was a lot of fun to go up there with a few fun obstacles and exposure. I'm not sure the reasoning of the park service anymore. They want to limit exposure and human impact to remote places and yet they grade the roads so anyone can go in.

 Here is wishing all a Happy Easter and hope it is well spent with your loved ones.
