It’s about 6:45 PM and you’re looking at the Rice Canyon fire burning about a mile to the north of us. (Those little bright spots are flames.)

A quarter million people have been evacuated from San Diego — including all 45,000 people from the town of Fallbrook. We’re in Bonsall right next door and preparing to leave should the flames get any closer. We’ve got to load up the kids, pets, livestock, etc. and find a safe place to go, so you may not hear from us for a few days.

No worries though — if we get some good pictures of a California wildfire, we’ll make sure to post them. (It’s not beer, but it’s still cool.)

Be safe and drink one for Molly and Me!
