My heart really goes out to the people of so. Calif. That have been effected by the current fires now wreaking havoc in the area. My sister lives in Chula Vista and tells me that they are ok for now but if the wind changes directions and doesn't let up then it may be a different story. My niece lives in a neighborhood that is next in line for evacuation.
I spoke with my sister this morning and she tells me that the 1000 trails campground near where she lives was saved by the Saint Helena fire dept. which is in the Napa Valley where I grew up. She also tells me that the local fairgrounds which is being used to house evacuated livestock is so full that there are 3 horses to a stall. Qualcom stadium is full as is the local high school down the street from her house. My nephew David worked there all night last night as a volunteer, I am really proud of him.
If you live in these areas our prayers are with you and be safe.
