Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.
We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!
We live about 5 hours from this massive fire and fortunately have only smelled smoke for 2 days. They evacuated 88,000 people from Ft Mac basically overnight and only 2 people lost their lives in a collision on the highway out. For perspective the fire has grown to almost 200,000 hectares, that is the same as Rochester New York or London England in land mass. There's more than 1000 people fighting it and lots of bombers,dozers etc but only rain will stop it. None in the near forecast. It's been tough hearing the stories and seeing the people displaced by this blaze. Tons of people and resources helping them as best as possible.
If anyone wants to, donations can be made online to red cross . ca Alberta fire appeal. Both the federal and provincial governments are matching donations so every bit counts. Largest forest fire in Canadian history. Pretty unreal. Thanks
