This is where the Santiago Fire is located in respect to my home. Keeping the windows closed helps to keep the smoke smell and ash out of the house. On the right side of the picture you can see Santiago and Modjeska canyons which have been in the news. Modjeska canyon is named after Arden the Helena Modjeska (mo-jeska). Helena was a famous Shakespearean actress from 1888 to 1906. The home is now a park: www.ocparks.com/modjeskahouse

They are saying lots of people are being told to evacuate but they don't say in what areas. Are you close to being told to evac? Doesn't seem like the one fire is too far from you.

If you Google Map my address and then switch to satellite view, you can see that there are hundreds of homes between the open space and my location. This urban sprawl is irrigated so there is no dry vegitation to ignite. Six homes along Santiago Road have been distroyed and homes on the boarder of the open space are threatened. My only inconvenience is having to sweep the ash off my patio.
Please make sure the fire is put out and the area is cleaned up by the time we visit @ New years
