aerial view of a portion of scripps ranch. at least what's left of it anyway...

these remaining pictures are all from yesterday.

from the parking lot of mira mesa high school. this is pretty much exactly what i saw yesterday outside my window.

another one from mira mesa high.

the view from downtown san diego. if i believed in hell, i think this is what it would look like.

aerial view of the fire approaching the freeway. it's the 15, near mcas miramar (the marine base close to our house).

aerial view of the fire approaching scripps ranch.

a closer picture of the fire from the 15, just past the exit to my house.

the view from close to campus.

it's the apocalypse taking over.

the view from clairemont mesa last night. see all those white dots in the frame? it's ash.

a map of the cedar fire's path. i live in mira mesa. if you look carefully, in between the words "mira mesa" and the symbol for the 15, that's pretty much where i live.
