This whole situation is simply awful. My heart goes out to those who are having to pick up and leave their homes to avoid these blazes. I can't imagine what it would be like, although what I've seen on the news is pretty unsettling. Stay safe, everybody. |

Outskirts of RSM/trabuco canyon has been given mandatory evacs and my neighbors have received reverse 911 calls. We use cell only so didn't get it. Only land-line is FAX. Right now they are concerned that the Cleveland National Forest gets going. If it does it could potentially take out rsm, coto de caza, ladera ranch, ortega highway and into rural san juan cap. There is a LOT of dry brush (aka fuel) there and the traffic impact would be catastrophic. I5 is shut down both ways last time I checked because of Camp Pendleton fire. Marines are ready for evac. http://ocregister.com/news/fire-canyon-blaze-1902172-santiago-road Trying to stay calm and alert-folllow the news as close as we can. Best wishes to fellow SG101ers out there and thanks to those keeping us in your thoughts. Dario — |

From Goober in Malibu: Thanks to all for the kind thoughts. Cable has been down since Sunday--no TV no internet. It finally came back up this morning--Charter said some of its fiber-optic lines burned. . We were under voluntary evacuation. The fires came within two ridges, but the LAFD backfired at a ridge near Los Flores and the damn hillside went out! If it had reached our tract, we were certainly toast. A water main broke this morning in Topanga Canyon, so we're staying dirty and keeping our fingers crossed for no flare-ups. News says Malibu is 75% contained. Kudos to those great fire fighters! P.S: there's a good south swell happening! The Goob. |

Having lived in Ventura for 3 months (temporary duty at Port Hueneme, with an Army National Guard unit I was deployed with), back in 2004, I have to say I have a fairly good mental grasp of the scope of this.

OK........I'm ready for this to be over. The fire turned away from my sister's house, thankfully. I'm sick now. All the smoke and ash is getting to me. The local school district has shut down for the rest of the week because some of the schools are in burn areas, are emergency sites, or are just experiencing bad air quality. -K I took this photo on Tuesday:
