Once again, Southern California is on fire.
The view of the Malibu fires from the air was awesome. These are colossal fires!
The pilot warned us before we landed, before we plunged into the opaque orange-brown plume.
"If you smell smoke--it is not from the airplane!"
On CNN just now they said a quarter of a million people have been evacuated. Can that possibly be true?
