In Isla Vista, summertime means sitting on rooftops or on the beach to watch the sunset, sailing to the Channel Islands, all while a wildfire scorches through thousands of acres in Santa Barbara County.

Takes me back to June 1990 watching the Painted Cave fire run to the sea. Sitting at Mc Burly’s enjoying Meister Brau. Watching the P-3s stream out of the airport for their 5 minute run to the drop zone.
