  • Fires Update

    Thanks for all the emails of concern.  Everything is OK where I live, it’s just really hard for me to breathe.  As long as the winds don’t shift towards the Hollywood Hills I should be OK.  I’m a bit more worried about down where my cousins live though.  Here are two pictures that Lisa just sent me from her cell phone.  These were taken from right by the restaurant we always eat at on Thursdays.  There’s a really interesting map below that shows details on all the fires and how they started and how contained they are.  I guess this is the price we pay for being able to eat breakfast on our patios 350 days a year!

  • Just to let you know I think your poem from 1972 is very cute.  You did a good job.  How old were you then?  Don’t forget that you have to remember the age of the writer when judging a poem!
