please fire goddess, don't take big sur






i want these fires to stop, everywhere in california. i don't know how, i just hope they do. cant they just like, scoop up a million tons of water from the sea and pour it over the state? :( probably that would be a bad idea.

big sur would be particularly painful to lose.

The focal point of containment efforts is a wind-driven blaze besieging the picturesque village of Big Sur, a normally bustling tourist haven around 120 miles (193 kilometers) south of San Francisco.

The blaze threatening the town has swept through 65,393 acres of the Los Padres National Forest and was only five percent contained according to latest figures on Friday.

also, about 200 Big Sur residents, including workers at the Esalen Institute and a nearby hermitage, were told to evacuate Tuesday as firefighters tried to halt the southern march of a huge and mostly uncontained wildfire in Los Padres National Forest.

i hope esalen is saved.

and camp and sons in willits, too.

and all of beautiful california.
