I’m home!
I just got in a half hour or so ago. The house and everything else is fine. There is a light coating of ash on everything outside, but not inside. As far as I can tell the fire didn’t come to this side of town. On the way in I could see no fire damage at all. If it wasn’t for a persistent smoky smell in the air and the ash, you wouldn’t even know there was a fire.
I’m sure the other side of Fallbrook was not so lucky. I’ll drive around later and see what’s what, but I know there were more than a few homes lost. I wish all of them my best.
My plan for the rest of the day is to unpack, get something to eat, keep an eye on the news - just in case - rest, and drink beer.

I’m very happy to hear that you are home and all is well. Sounds like the beer is well deserved!
