THERE you are! I was starting to get worried!

Haven't heard much about the San Tim fire between Moreno Valley and Calimesa. Last report I got was 1,500 acres burned with a possibility of another 1,200 acres and 100 homes in jeopardy. In an interesting note in the SB Sun regarding the San Tim fire...

Between 60,000 and 90,000 chickens perished in the fire, which started in Coop No. 6, said Steve Nichols, 54, of Arcadia, who owns the MCM Poultry egg ranch and four others in Southern California.

I drove by a fire in the Cabazon Pass on the way home from Palm Springs last night. There was also a fire near Mentone that closed Highway 38 from Redlands to Big Bear.

Another incident was reported last night at 11:19pm about a fire near Alpine in the San Diego area. Two hikers were trapped by a fire that they might have set. Sounds suspicious to me...
