The view from my roof this morning. Moonkitty has been evacuated from the shop along with some finished boards. The surrounding residential neighborhood around Moonlight has been evacuated. Prayers and good vibes to all our friends whose homes are in the path of the flames.

October 22, 2007We are chilling out. It’s very smokey and most of San Diego has been evacuated. It looks like the fire that was threatning Moonlight is contained and moved south. Carlsbad and Oceanside to the north are clear blue skies and epic waves.

Every ones lams, stickers, films & Archived art is safe in my truck. Just in case.

October 22, 2007Good idea Jon. There is a chance that the Rancho Santa Fe fire could go west into Encinitas so stay alert amigos.

October 22, 2007Moonkitty has made the transition from shopcat to housecat pretty well. He’s asleep on my bed. Hope we dont have to evacuate him twice in one day. Just looked at the freeway its a parking lot. If we have to bail I quess I will just put the truck in 4 wheel drive and head for the beach.

October 22, 2007The evac around Moonlight and the surrounding areas have been lifted. We are back at home. Really smoky though. Glad we invested in the AC.

October 23, 2007I didn’t see the Moonkitty status from Pinliner. Good to hear he’s adapted quickly. Wind forcast looks somewhat promising. Good luck everyone.

October 23, 2007Everything is looking good for us. A lot of people around the county lost their homes. Heavy day. The shop, your boards and all Moon crew is safe. I checked the surf this afternoon and it had a spooky perfection. Creepy. Lot’s of people surfing in the smoke, I bet they are feeling it now.
