Years before the fire, I flew out of LAX to Maui and saw that whole area, the place I ‘grew up, home of S.B., Ojai, Goleta, Carpinteria. I love it like home, but don’t plan on seeing again except in flight southeast far away.

I flew over Santa Barbara County yesterday – checking out the Thomas Fire above Montecito – crazy how this fire continues to burn in mid December. Saw flames so close to San Ysidro Ranch. Uggg.

Hi Penny – yes the scope of the damage is astounding. Also check out Atlas Peak and Trinity Road/Cavedale and Annadel. Last night we enjoyed Ode to Joy from Paradise Ridge (whose winery in Fountaingrove burned down) and honey from my hives which also burned down next to the 128 (right next to where you drive to work every day).

Hi Dave, I drove through Mark West last night and Fountain Grove a couple of days ago. I have been driving through Knights Valley to work. It is all just shocking. And the more trees they cut down the more is revealed. Still, there’s more beauty than not.
