Fires

I was not expecting my school to be closed, as the Sesnon fire is based in Porter Ranch, which is NE of us. I got a call around 7:15 from my vice-principal telling me the school is closed and to begin calling my parents. Well, turns out I keep my roster at school… so no help there from the new responsible teacher. =P I ended up caling the school and told administration I do not have my phone numbers and to e-mail them to me, to which they replied that they are calling and not to worry about it. Whew!

Anyhow, I took a picture from my balcony facing toward the fire… the pic is a bit blurry, but you can see smoke approaching, slowly. According to the news, the flames are heading South and East…. right down Topanga Cyn Blvd toward the 101 (which is right where I live). Aaaah!

Luckily it’s not too close (yet.. knock on wood). It is incredibly windy out here, and it smells like bonfire! Cough cough.

I’m still trying to decide what to do with my day off… Steve has a meeting later so he’s no help, and everyone else I know has “normal” work schedules! I’m VERY tempted to visit Disneyland on my own, as I have an annual pass. =) Someone come with!
