Last Night’s Orange Moon

A smokey haze clouded our drive to the city late afternoon yesterday. On the way home the moon was orange through all the smoke. So Cal has quite a few fires and we are thankful they aren’t close to us. But, I do think most everyone on Palomar might have woken up during the night by the strong smell of smoke perhaps coming our way from the bigger fires in Orange County and San Bernadino and others throughout SoCal. We’re thankful that it is much clearer out there now.

Neighbors, Jim and Teresa McCarthy introduced us to a Fire app you might want to follow. Watch Duty is simple to see up for alerts that keep you posted in the county or you can click on their maps to keep up with other areas.

Cooler temps on the way should be helpful, too!
