The fires during the week of October 29, 2007 surrounded us. We did not have to evacuate but the air was filled with smoke and ash. I have cleaned mounds of ash both inside and outside.
We were glued to the TV and internet anxiously watching where the fires were going next.
Our home is in the front, dark portion of this photo.
This photo was taken from Dana Point. We are at the right tip of the flames.
My mom and brother were evacuated from Fallbrook and spent the week with us.
We drove to the beach for an outing. There were several Dolphins playing around the pier. A great sight to see through the smoke filled sky.
Then we toured the Casa Romantica. It was closed because of smoke and ash but they allowed me to take Mom and David through because of my relationship with the Casa. If you want to see more about the Casa go to www.casaromantica.org.
Self photo of Mom and I on the back deck of the Casa with the pier, and smoke in the background.
