A very hectic day here in Bear Valley. Had to pack all of our artwork and sentimental valuables, computers, all that good stuff, and get ready to evacuate because of the McHugh Creek fire that's burning just a ridge and a couple of miles from us. It exploded in size last night to around 500 acres. I've got everything in totes ready to throw in the motorhome. There's only one road leading into Bear Valley, so that could get interesting if we get an evacuation notice.

So after all that drama today, we end up with this incredible sunset at 10:30pm. Now we see what the night brings us.
