Fires

Well no photos this time. This weekend was good, Friday we went out to Macaroni Grill for a late dinner for Anthea's birthday so the rest of the family could celebrate with her. Saturday I had our SWBA finale called the "Nightmare on Wall Street" tourney. It was the top 10 (actually 12) teams from the year and we fished only the Long Beach Breakwall. Partner and I did well and took 2nd Place so that was cool. Fishing was a little slow all around though. Sunday the three of us went out to a big RV show in Pomona to get familiar with RVs since I am starting a side venture publication on RVing with a friend of mine.

The fires are the big news out here. There is one here south of us in Irvine, a bunch in San Diego, and some up by Malibu. I'm sure you have heard something about them or you've been living under a rock the last week. The sky is nasty and brown and the sun is blotted out much of the time today. The Santa Ana winds haven't let up yet and keep making things worse. We are safe as we live close to the harbor and away from major hills and such. Talked to my friend Marco who is living down in San Diego and he said it is really bad outside with the air quality and that he and his girlfriend are doing fine, but if the fire(s) get close to them they might have to head up here to hang with us. He said the 5 fwy heading north is already grid-locked...Praying that things get better for everyone. Feel bad for those that lost their homes and are displaced...

Miss everyone, hope everyone reading this is doing well..

Brandon and the fam
