900 homes destroyed in multiple fires in California. Reportedly one fire spread to Tijuana Mexico, and then returned to U.S.. President declares disaster which means federal aid is given. My car has ash on it and the air has been somewhat yellowish and smells like burning for a few days.

I live in Simi Valley, where I could still see the fires burning when I drove home. It looked like in snowed on my block, as not more then 40 feet was a hill completely burned. It's pretty bad. The houses across the street were forced to evacuate, we were suggested to, but forget that, I'm not leaving. The fires moved to the other side of Simi Valley so I should be fine. Alot of my friends had to evacuate though. It's pretty shitty down here. Yesterday I couldn't see anything in front of me. The only reason I got to drive home on the 118 was because I had an ID saying I lived in Simi. So yeah, it sucks, but we'll get over it.

For the last few days here, most air time on the local TV channels and some radio stations is about nothing but fire. I've had my windows shut for days to keep soot from coming in. One night the moon looked redish.
edit: the news just reported of a local earth quake. Also of a large fire in Colorado.

Conditions have improved at least here in Simi since the fires left. First time I've seen blue skies in a couple of days. Though everythings charred to a crisp. All the hills are just toasted. Plus there was two earthquakes today. If there's a sudden surge in the locust population or some flooding, I'll be seeing ya guys at church :P
