Yikes, and another vehicle (unknown type) flipped into a ditch. Dangerous night to be out driving. 11/15/25 2110 #VenturaCounty
Head's up Santa Barbara, Ventura County - ICBM launch sometime tonight out of Vandenberg. (not loaded with a nuke... hopefully).
Sometime between 11pm and 5am. I won't be awake. Take pictures/video!
Wonder if this will be more visible from Arizona than the fog of SoCal. 🤔

I'm running a Wilderness First Aid class (in person) in the Conejo Valley on November 2 (Sun) and November 23rd (Sun) 8am to 5pm both days if anyone local is interested. Cost is $75.00 (my cost for books and certification card, supplies). If you want to sign up, let me know, I have a few spots open. All the skills learned here are useful in everyday life, wilderness or not, and also during disasters. CPR certification is included. #FirstAid #WFA #WildernessFirstAid #ConejoValley #ThousandOaks #DisasterPreparedness #CPR #VenturaCounty

Ventura County is upstaffing fire crews for rain on Monday/Tues/Wednesday in case of flash flooding. I blame this on my removal of my vinyl rain gutters two weekends ago. #rain #CAwx #flooding #VenturaCounty
