17. Thanks Kestrel. The fire has chewed through San Roque, which features modest-sized homes...
When a Realtor advertises a "San Roque charmer" you know two things about it already: it's small, and it costs a fortune.

Two hundred homes were already lost in the Tea Fire; in some places where this one is burning they had just begun to rebuild. We were threatened by the Gap Fire -- dh hoped that meant the fuel was gone and we'd be safer, but no such luck. The fire chief announced that the new growth is now crispy. We can see from the map where the new fire overlaps with the old burn from the Gap Fire.

This being the Central Coast, there are rich people with rich people's houses. But the vast majority of us are just normal people living in an abnormally skewed real estate market.
