For those wondering about the fires burning in Southern California one was started by Arson Sunday evening about 9 miles up from my home. The fire, started in three separate places near Santiago Canyon and Silverado Canyon roads about 5:55 p.m. Sunday, has destroyed 14 homes and eight outbuildings, according the Orange County Fire Authority. Eight homes and 12 outbuildings have been damaged. About 22,000 acres in the mostly rural horse country east of Irvine has been blackened. Virtually every canyon community, including Trabuco, Modjeska and Silverado canyons, was evacuated.
The ashes have carried all across Irvine leaving a heavy smoke in the air and difficult to breathe. Irvine Valley College closed Monday, Wednesday- Friday. I will be enjoying my night away from class tonight and working on my Halloween costume and other projects I hope to accomplish with this vacation from work. Keep all those who have lost homes in your prayers.
