I will never forget the wonderful time we spent together when I visited you in the Pacific Palisades and met Linden. The biggest thing for me is knowing you are safe and not in the middle of this horrible disaster. Always thinking of you. Love from Arizona.
I can't imagine the pain this nightmare event has caused you and so many people in California. It does not look like 2025 will be much better than 2024 but we all have to move forward with whatever challenges the world sends our way. It's going to take years to recover and in some areas that may not be possible due to the toxins released into the air, water and soil by the fire. Please keep us updated if you can and hear of organizations providing support. Sending prayers and a hug always.🙏🙏🙏🫂🫂🫂
Lots of problems for many whom have lost homes, I’ve heard many not insured either, they say 5 have died in these fires.
I hope people have family to go too.?
Consider yourself bless to have never had to evaluate your home, making choices of what to take and what to leave behind with a glimmer of hope they be back once you are allowed back into your home. CA not new to fires i lived through the Cedar Fire 2003 and another fire 2007 those consumed 10 times the amount of acre then this fire has burned through. The difference is that we had more spead out homes and land that allowed some to stand and others to burn without reason why. We also had water to put out fires. This fire 🔥 was just home after home just destroyed. Lack of water what so scary. Its so sad the amount of people who will have to recover and start over! Prayers for all !
I'm sorry about your mom, Kaye. And your cat. And your neighbors and old neighborhood. That's a heavy load. Let the Lord help you carry it. I'll be praying ❤ Love to you.
It seems so much sadness is happening to so many people. My son is a pastor in California and lives in Santa Maria which is north of Southern California. He and his family love California in spite of the high cost of living and the political nature. I've visited a few times and they always take me hiking or to a museum or the beach. Praying for all who lost homes. Praying for you also with so many things happening in your life. Blessings.
I'm so sorry , praying for all 🙏
It doesn't make sense, these large fires…thinking of Maui too 😭
Thank you for making the people affected real for everyone.
I feel terrible for those people and for you , being part of that area I can understand how sad you feel , heck I didn't live there but I have shed tears for everyone that have been in tornados Hurricane Helene, fires in Maui, our World is in big trouble, hang on to God , he is the only hope of glory .
Dear Lord, please be with all those who have been affected by this horrible situation. Please send mercy, grace, and comfort for those who have lost so much. Be with the fire fighters and the emergency workers who are working so hard throughout this travesty. In Jesus' 😢name, we pray. Amen.
Thanks for being here during this time
I was born in CA and lived there 59 years until 2019. I have friends and family who've evacuated because of the fires. I do not miss the fires, that's for sure. This has obviously impacted you in a personal way, and my heart goes out to you and your former neighbors and friends. I can't help but recall calls to "build back better" or Klaus Schwab telling us, "You'll own nothing and be happy." Is this how they plan to accomplish their evil goals? God help us. They will answer for their evil deeds when they meet their maker.
This is heartbreakibg; Lindon, the fires, your mom passing. I'm so sorry for your losses. 😢 hopefully your friends will be ok, and their fur-babies as well. Prayers for all those people in the path of the fires. Grateful that you were fortunate enough to escape California and start your homesteading in Tennessee. And I am sure your former neighbors miss you too. The devastation is horrible. Prayers for you, you are one strong woman to have suffered so much loss in such a short time, yet you endured and still smiling, and you jeep working Miss you, much love my friend ❤
I enjoy your podcast so much, I feel so sorry for the Californians who lost their homes, I feel politicians have about destroyed that beautiful state, Stay warm by your Buck Stove as the snow will be here soon.
I heard on Redacted and other alternative news broadcasts that the fire hydrants were emptied previously and had no water in them. This sounds like the Hawaii disaster. Evil ones at work.
It’s okay to grieve. I’m also grieving over losses this year. Don’t rush it.
How sad. I loved your old property and garden in CA.
Prayers for all the victims. This winter has been very scary with all the natural disasters and loses. Take care of you🙏🏻
We saw on the news what's happening in California and when they've mentioned Pacific Palisades that sounded so familiar to me from your channel. It's so terrible what's happening there 😥
I appreciated your perspective and it was a blessing to hear the genuine love you have for your friends/family like friends. May our Lord Jesus keep them in His perfect care. I will keep them in my prayers because you shared their stories. Roel
We need to pray for those who have lost so much. And that we do not have assistance fatigue with this following North Carolina.
I am so sorry for your losses Kaye. Also for your friends losses. Praying for you, your family and all affected by the fires. Love, hugs and prayers❤
I’m so sorry you have lost your beloved neighborhood and town. This happened to my family through the Tubbs fire in 2017 in Santa Rosa, Ca. My brother, friends and neighbors all lost their homes. I lost two previously owned homes before the fire hit. We raised our children there, all the memories and familiar sights gone. I felt like a living ghost in my own hometown. It took 2 years for people w insurance to rebuild. The neighborhood and town has since then been rebuilt. We personally still live in a tiny home rental on the outskirts of town forced from the fires from our rental at the time. – Many prayers for you, your neighbors and moving towards the future. Like you I also have 2 Grandchildren on the way. God still provides no matter what. God is good and He will Prevail over all evil. 🙏✝️🛡️
Kaye, I thought all about you when I saw the fire. I have been watching your channel when you lived there while growing your garden. I'm so sorry you are having to relive what was a great time of your life but now in a horrific light. I'm so glad you moved back to Tennessee.
It's heartbreaking. My daughter lived 10 miles from the fires. Her and her friends were able to get out to Arizona. Thousands of people lost everything. Sending light and love to all. I am sorry for all your hurt and pain✨️🌻
We must be living in the last days before GOD destroys the earth.
Let think about it.
1. Hurricanes now move 600 miles inland with devastation
2. January (in not) in the normal wild Fire season for California.
Thankyou so much for your updates. I watched the extra videos you posted. Prayer for CA. ❤
Praying for you and for all the people who have been impacted by the fires.
Good to see your video today. I’m so very sorry for the people 😢. Praying for them. Yes we will think on God and Jesus. 💕✝️
I am so sorry Kaye! That’s a lot of loss in a short time. It’s ok to feel sad for a time but it’s true, eventually look forward. You have a lot of friends on both coasts and much to keep your mind busy. ❤
I’m so sorry for your loss. I remember meeting you at your house when I was visiting Zachary’s family. I will never forget how beautiful your house and garden were. Thank you for introducing your garden to us. I will never forget the experience.❤
Romans 12:15 "Rejoice with those who rejoice; mourn with those who mourn." Looking back is a way to honor your parents, your mother in this case. We all grieve our own way at our own pace, and we move forward little by little. The Father YHVH has got this. You are in the palm of His hand.
It's so sad what happened, just awful. I can't imagine all the feelings that come with all that loss! The area was doomed due to no water in the hydrants. I can't imagine no water in hydrants, very unlawful. People should sue the city, maybe they would wake up! You lived there and have ties and memories, so yes it would have some meaning!
Hi Kaye, Long time since I’ve check your channel out. I was thinking about you when I heard about the fires. I’ll have to catch up. I’m so sorry to hear about your recent losses. Your helper in your CA house was wonderful to you and so helpful. I hope he is all right. I enjoyed your garden in CA. And that time you invited me to your play was awesome! You are so talented and kind. I’m still traveling the USA and loving it. Sending you lots of hugs and kisses! 🤗 😘
My heart goes out to you, your friends, and neighbors affected by the fires in Palisades. Our thoughts and prayers are with the families who have lost so much, as well as the brave firefighters on the frontlines, working tirelessly to protect our lives and property. 🙏🔥
I first found your channel when I was looking for information on ollas. I am sorry for your loss and the tragedy for who have been impacted by the fires. May God watch over them and keep them safe. 🙏
Great analysis, thank you! Just a quick off-topic question: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (mistake turkey blossom warfare blade until bachelor fall squeeze today flee guitar). How can I transfer them to Binance?
Sorry for your losses, life is so unpredictable..
