On Wednesday I noticed how "Firey" the sunset was so I took a photo.
Little did I know that on Thursday fire would break out in the Santa Barbara/Montecito area where 210 houses were lost. For two days the city was shrouded in smoke, covered in ash, and the sound of helicoptors and sirens were heard.
Kinda scary, but thankfully I wasn't directly affected.
Not to detract from the fire, but it did have one small affect on me. My coffee shop was closed due to the fires. (Tragedy!) So I went to another nearby cafe that only did brewed coffee so I got a smoothie. Then I walked a slightly different route to work. I'm going to blame this on the fire - the coffee shop was closed, I was upset by the fires, I got ash in my eyes - anything! Because I fell over - in the most unglamorous fashion! Tripped on nothing at all, went flying across the sidewalk, pink smoothie flew across the footpath. I skinned my knee, sprained my wrist, and scratched my chin!
Worst of all - I broke my camera!!!! So photos are on hold for a while.
