High Desert Sunset With A Smoke Kicker

We’re up in Apple Valley and Hesperia looking at open houses. There’s also a large brush fire (currently at 478 acres with zero containment) about a dozen miles south of us. We’re fine, no significant danger, it’s burning in a wilderness area, but the smell is STRONG and there are literal TONS of particulates in the air.

At the left, above the palm trees, is the crescent Moon.

In the wide view, over on the right, is a windmill with neon all over, a part of a minigolf course & some rides next ti the hotel.

MARVELOUS! Now if we could just find a house, get through escrow, and get moved!
