Santa Cruz Mountain Fire


We've been getting lots of calls and texts this morning about the fire in Bonny Doon. It's about 10 miles northwest of our house. We are OK, but this could be a bad one.... so far it has burned 1200 acres and is zero percent contained. It's in a pretty rugged, remote area though there are homes out there. It's so dry here that the mountains are just full of fuel. They have the planes out this morning trying to bring it under some level of control. The winds are supposed to pick up a bit today,which does not help at all. Hopefully we'll get some inland fog in the next couple days to help. Here's a link to the latest details: http://www.santacruzsentinel.com/localnews/ci_13052532
