My heart goes out to you guys, as I know how it feels. We did this for Rita and trust me it is NOT a good feeling!

I can't imagine what you and RD (and perhaps others here) are going through, but I hope that your possessions are spared, but more importantly, you have your lives. I know you realize this. The situation is devastating to me and I'm 2000 miles from you.
I'm sorry - I didn't mean to make light of it either. (It's H1's fault! She's a bad influence.)

I've been watching the news today & have been praying for all of those in CA.

It's ok, it struck me as funny also. I never thought twice about it.

The areas that were on mandatory evacuations that would affected me (and Reformed Dave) have just been told they can return home...the fire is not an issue anymore. This was in big part to the wind changing and the fact they were able to start fighting from the air.

I would not be able to go to the stadium....you know, worldly entertainment and all.

The clean-up you have to be careful with. Can't sweep it away because it would be unhealthy to breathe that in...messes up the respitory system.

I am very thankful right now, though.

I also found out work (school district) is closed for the remainder of the week. Good thing...Paid Time Off!!!!

You Southern California folks have been in my thoughts and prayers today. Dislocation, terrible smoke and ash in the air and the possibilty of losing your home is a real trial. God bless.
