Didn’t I mention we might luck out with some rain? Never mind the weather guys, we have that guardian angel around these parts–although with all the fires in So. Cal. it seems as if the wet weather was delayed a bit longer. I hope you like the updated maps for 10/27/07.

Slide Fire is reported as 35% contained and the Grass Valley Fire is reported as 85% contained. Progress is good!
