Went into Hi-Ali a vendor trading spot here in Q that is like a big yardsale today. A vendor I met last year and like to talk to and sometimes share a meal with camps and vends out of his van there. About 1 AM Christmas morning he awoke to a fire raging inside his van. He was able to grab his little dog and with flames licking at him jump out the side doors. He thinks he fell asleep while smoking. His van with his entire life inside burned to the ground. He was left standing outside in his underwear holding his dog. I'm told fellow vendors took up a collection and drove him to Parker to the Walmart to get some clothes and toothbrush etc. I gave him all the money I could afford and promised to help any way I can while I'm here. Life can change in an instant. Be forewarned, don't come back with any negative comments about this mans misfortune. Life happens, but for grace there goes you or I. I share this with you as a caution, take from it what you may.
