When you are engulfed in flames

KQED radio's traffic reporter said yesterday that "the Bay Area is surrounded by fire."  For a split-second, I thought Armaggedon was here, albeit slightly sooner than I thought.

 

Today, with 800 fires raging and the air quality only getting worse, I asked BigDra to finally put his world travels to use for someone other than himself and share some lessons about living in a ring of fire.

His suggestion: "Go to Peru."
