@TheBernieisme Thanks, man. Ive been in worse. It's always hairy on the front lines. Safety is always a priority, but sometimes it's close. Thanks for your support, I appreciate it.
Did the fire work to naturally clear the underbrush and leave trees mildly harmed but healthy enough to recover? Fire is Nature's tool for converting grasses into tree food. Rainy season will be interesting to see how the mud flows. I have friends in Lake Forest, so I looked first to see they will be ok. I'll try to get over the Ortega Hwy after the rain.
