Funny thing is that I have last weeks READER in front of me and it's the volume with the Cedar fire cover story...Sad.

I hope it doesn't get like that...but the atmosphere outside is already starting to look like the beginning of the Cedar fire.. and the smell is horrible.

I wasn't here for the Cedar Fires but I live way over by Mission Bay and it's even smokey outside here, it actually irritated my eyes and the fires are so so so far away from here! The 2 fires are each 3,000 acres large now, that's insane.

that is just sad. seattle had a wind storm just this week; we reminisced over the last wind storm last year in december. We know your pain california. I really do pray that no one else gets hurt.
