Canyon Fire from Camp Roberts plus Pismo Beach

We stayed at the California National Guard Camp here this past weekend.
We were supposed to see Trace Adkins at Pozo Saloon on yesterday afternoon/evening. It was cancelled for "unforseen circumstances." Being it was past the cut off for our card holding the room, we went over anyway.
Since we are in the 5 year severe drought, there was a fire sort of close............The Canyon Fire by Lake Naciemento and it even crept close to the Hearst Castle this morning, as in about two miles close. The P-3 and BAE 146 tankers were cycling from Paso Robles Airport during daylight hours.

This one is fairly close. I went to the FasTrip a bit ago and I can see the smoke from California City.

It started about 10:30 yesterday morning and is at 18,000 acres and 0 percent contained.

A little bit of music....................Scorpions

I close my eyes, only for a moment, and the moment's gone
All my dreams pass before my eyes, a curiosity
Dust in the wind
All they are is dust in the wind

Dave Barry on getting a "scope."

http://www.miamiherald.com/living/liv-columns-blogs/dave-barry/article1928847.html
I have to get scoped about every 5 years due to being in a risk category.
1. It killed my Dad.
2. I had a polyp removed during one of my earlier one's.
