I often turn on the TV to watch the noon news while eating my lunch. Yesterday, I saw a fire begin near the
junction of two freeways. Just a tiny
fire.
Today over 100,000 people are evacuated, 25 homes plus even more mobile
homes burned, and twenty horses have died.
The fire area has moved from HWY 15 and 76 toward the ocean. Several evacuation centers are full. The Del Mar Fairgrounds has taken in almost
600 horses. Daughter Margot and her neighbor
brewed coffee and decaf. They took it to
their evacuee center, and the Red Cross folks appreciated it too.
Just small things from a very smoky world.

ReplyDeleteIt's half an hour north. Smoke and debris here but no fire.
ReplyDeleteSo sad. Stay safe and don't stay long out in that air.
ReplyDeleteThese California fires are so spooky. So far, it hasn’t reached my sister-in-law’s place, but who knows. That’s so kind of Margot. I hope you’re far away from the fires too, Mage.
ReplyDeleteCalifornians live in a kind of paradise in a way, but dreadful things also happen there. Keep on keeping on out there.
ReplyDeleteWe are living in a desert, and as long as we keep planting green stuffs we are in trouble.
DeleteThe news reports are unbelievable. It is as if one of those Hollywood disaster films was happening. My heart goes out to all who have lost so much. Stay safe.
ReplyDeleteThis morning...in the news: Over 20 horses died, and the lady who tried to save them is in critical condition.
