I was driving into work this morning and saw smoke over the bay. I pulled off at the Sausalito exit and took a few pictures of the fire on Angel Island:

Here's the Maltese Falcon in the smoky dawn light:

    Thanks! I went down there to take pictures of the fire. The ship was a bonus. Here's a bit more about this unique vessel: http://yachtpals.com/maltese-falcon-3068

    How did that fire start?
    I was in San Jose and a couple of times around the Golden Gate Bridge,
    but not during the time of the fire.... we were in Arizona and UTAH.

    Hope it didn't do too much damage.......makes for great colour in the sky.

    Thanks for sharing thumb.gif .... Skippy :D

    Last I heard they were still investigating it. I don't know if there is a conclusion yet.

    From the pix it looks like you had a great time in the desert. I'd love to get out that way some time.
