la mag

Recently, I have subscribed to LA mag through an initiative called LA circles. I was informed by my boyfriend that this will be a wonderful way to stay connected and in the know of Los Angeles. My subscription finally came this past week! And I have not been able to put the magazine down! It has good articles and has a variety of 411 to share. I like it because I'm still a newbie to LA... (only living here two years), so I feel quite hip getting it every month and as if I may becoming an angeleno.

fire sun

The station fire, which is consuming the LA area right now, is said to be one of the largest fires for the state of California in history. And the scary part is it hasn't stopped growing. A weird fact about this fire is that it was not driven by wind. Yet, it still has flames that reach between 300-400 feet in length. Sadly, this is the hottest most damaging fire to hit LA in a long time.
On the bright side, LA is experiencing some spectacular sunsets and sunrises! And throughout the day, there is an orange glow that overpowers the sky. It is advised to stay inside during these smoky times, but I advise to gaze outside and observe the wonderful views!
