#AlphabetChallenge #WeekFforFire #EastCoastKin #WestCoastKin #WestCoastPhotography #photography Smoke flume looks like a mountain...sadly evidence of an out of control fire in San Luis Obispo/Santa Barbara counties (82,000+ acres)

Photo of a cloud of smoke in the shape of a large mountain. Greenery and a red roof top frame the photo.

Thank you. I'm following it on my fire app. Stay safe if you're near by.

Thank you...we're about 35 miles west. Depending on wind, just have the smokey air.

I just don't like fire season. We lived in Avila Beach for many years. We have many friends in the area.

Agree...that's why we moved back to central coast from Nevada City (foothills of Sierra Nevada)...although beautiful, too much fire danger.

Orcutt is a nice town. We landed in Eugene, Oregon. It's a good place.

Funny, my husband lived in Eugene for about 10 years...go Ducks!!! He got tired of the wet weather, tho. Glad you are enjoying.

It's just rain. Lol. Far better than the summer heat in Phoenix that came after our time in Avila.
