Wildfire Update

Here's an update on the Gap Fire here in Santa Barbara County. The fire is at 90% containment and is expected to be extinguished in two days. Four out buildings were destroyed, but no homes were lost. The cause is still not known, though there has been some speculation that global warming is partly to blame.

Sure, blame it on Global Warming.

Thats good because it looks real close to me.

It was close enough for me to see it from my place, but plenty far away. The fire would have had to burn a bunch of houses, jump a road, and then burn the mobile home park before it got to me.

Heather, of course we need to blame it on global warming, what else would we blame it on?
