Hi Tammy,

I've been watching the news and checking online So. Cal newspapers in order to follow the fires. I'm from Orange County and have so many friends all over Southern California. I'm getting ready to call my old workplace in Irvine to find out if all is okay with everyone there. My brother is in the high desert, but used to live near Lake Arrowhead. He was evacuated from the last big fire up that way.

I really feel for everyone that has to leave their homes and sometimes even their animals (such as horses). At times there is such little warning when fires jump breaks or change direction quickly and people have to leave so fast. Breaks my heart. So many of those areas are hilly and treacherous to navigate by foot let alone by vehicle - the fire crews have a tough job.

Please extend my regards to Noel. I hope she is okay and that she has a home to go to by the time it's all over with.
