We all know friends and relatives in the path of the fires in Cal. Here is a stunning photo taken by a Kingman classmate of mine:
Lake Mission Viejo on Tuesday Night
"And, yes we are safe. Never in danger of anything but major smoke inhalation. Three schools (of the 36 + alternative ed, etc.) had to be closed from the start; the rest were closed today and tomorrow. Winds mean bigger fires; no winds mean seriously unhealthy air quality. Double-edged. Kind of like the picture: beautiful and horrifying. This picture was taken 2-3 miles from our house. Two of our elementaries are in the middle of the territory you see. I know several of you (here or in Arizona or Utah, etc.) can relate and have your own stories. Most of my stories are about lame-brained behavior by parents and incredibly touching acts of kindness."
