Well, doesn't look like we'll be burning Christmas trees, or old cases  
for that matter. Sounds like air quality is none too good.

Oh, well.

But on the plus side found a place to camp in Half Moon Bay, 45-60  
minutes south of Ocean beach. Cameron's and they charge $30/night. My  
plan is to go there after bURNINGvAN and check it out. Anyone else  
interested?
