that is freaky! so was hearing the choppers on the phone.
we woke up to 2 more fires down here. one in the LA mountains the other east in the desert.
ca is burning early this year. 
glad you're ok. we were afraid you'd turn into a baked tator!  |

We are all safe... I just got up a bit ago and need to watch the morning news... I stayed up pretty late to make sure conditions did not change that would put us back in harms way...
If the road is open I will be a nosy neighbor and go take photos of the carnage and post them in the photobucket album.
I am only left to wonder.... what would a "Drama Free" life be like? |

Still waiting on the final word from officials...
The community's general feeling is that the fire started in the detached garage of this house...
This house is rumored to be a Meth Lab...
My first drive by the area video... shows a Hazmat truck parked just in front of the garage remains...
The Garage was behind the El Caminio
