Last night around 11:00 PM we set off from Del Mar. We contemplated going to LA but insteaded headed to Point Loma. There are now 14 people staying in Julie and Holly's house - including dad's tenant! The forecast for today is hotter, dryer and windy - perfect fire weather. The weather is forecast to change tomorrow - for the better.

The television coverage has been quite frustrating. We are told conflicting things about where the fires are. Often the networks put up videos of houses burning but do not identify where the video was taken. And often their information is incorrect. Mind you, it is all in Hi Def - so the video is quite impressive.

Of course it's tough to cover something like this. The situation is changing constantly. And it is affecting more than a million people - in various ways.

The air is much better here in Point Loma. Yesterday in Del Mar we had to keep the windows closed the entire day. It was quite unpleasant. The living environment is better here... even with 14 people under this roof.

It's 6:45 AM. The sun is just coming up. We shall see what daylight brings.
