Fire!

Oct. 26th, 2003 at 12:02 PM

San Diego is burning.

Looks like it's moved south, but it was heading west this morning and we were pretty nervous. I know Tierrasanta was evacuated, which is where Ben lives, and Daniel is trapped in Alpine if it jumps the 8. Yudi and Q are in Palm Springs and will probably have problems getting home since large parts of the 15 are closed, but I haven't been able to get through to them to talk to them directly.

Current Mood: nervous

Exciting, but scary. :( And I didn't know you had family here. When are you coming to visit? :D

Holy shlamoly! I hope that your friends are okay and that you keep us updated about their situation.

I've never been in a wildfire area. I imagine I would be terribly frightened.

Daniel is making a run for it, Ben hasn't actually been told to evacuate it (although the north part of his area has), and everyone else we're keeping tabs on beest we can. It's wild.

Wow, hoping and praying for you.

We had the Rodeo fire here last summer, so I know how you feel...
