Ball of Fire back in Malibu

Having an amazing long weekend.  We were back up in Topanga Canyon this weekend so I went out to scout the fire damage that we fled three weeks ago, shortly before we evacuated our own home.  Drove the length of Topanga Canyon Boulevard down to the Pacific Coast Highway, then turned up toward Malibu.  Saw none.  Just this pesky ball of fire that caused me to pull the car over and sit and gawk for half an hour or so. 

Followed that up with a very nice brunch this morning that was only marred when I spewed my coffee reading the L.A. Daily News.  The L.A. Unified School District’s produced a supplement touting their progress and achievements including a quarter-page profile of their Couch of the Year.  Unfortunately Micky’s Brown Couch was not the winner, but some guy working in the athletics department.   

Home now after some power shopping.  Outlet malls can be dangerous places.

    But it was a great little roadtrip.

    I hate to say it but the pic of Smorito kinda looked… oh… nevermind… it is grossing me out thinking about the pic again.

    I’m sure it tasted fine and all, but to my constantly absurdist brain thoughts it looked like something else entirely.
