California Fires Some concern for our fellow Californian orgers...
Are you all ok? ^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^
Being happy doesn't mean that everything is perfect, it means you've decided to look beyond the imperfections... unknown | |

I was caught up in one while working this weekend...got stuck on the highway for 1 1/2 hours and only traveled half of a mile!!!  ...Then, to top things off, they closed the highway I was on right in front of me...had to exit with 4 other lanes of traffic, all of use getting off at the same exit. I ended up stuck up in Valencia for over 4 hours...I went to IHOP and just cooled out there for a bit over an hour...lol...pancakes were good, anyway. 
On a positive note, though, at least I got a few halfway decent pics of part of the fire...took these from my car window: 
The sun above my car...  [This message was edited Mon Jul 19 9:54:32 2004 by Byron] | |

So scary though.... In spite of the cost of living, it's still popular. |

I just read this...on CNN "The wildfire began when a red-tailed hawk hit power lines and caught fire, said Jim Dellamonica, a spokesman for the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection. The bird fell to the ground, setting plants on fire, he said." ^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^
