I’m glad that you are safe and sound. My thoughts are with you and your
family.

Joe-
Thanks for your kind thoughts. The “excitement” for us was Sunday night when the
fire started around 18:00 and built very quickly. The air outside our house
looked like a Hollywood London fog punctuated only by street lights. No ash, but
very strong smell. Susan prepped us in case we had to evacuate (LEGO: 1 of 2
Order of the Blue Elephants, 1 juice box that David built at 18 months; the
other 2,000,000 bricks would stay home). The OCFA made a stand at the 241
freeway road just north of us. Unfortunately, David’s high school was on the
wrong side of the road, but the fire was stopped at the edge of the school
grounds. (No school on Monday). The worst that happened to us was that Susan got
smoke particles in one eye and we had to make three doctor visits to get them
all out. Today is day 4 and the smoke smell is still very strong. I drove to
work this morning because the Metrolink train I normally take was canceled when
fire crossed I5 last night between here and LLCA. Oddly enough, it’s blue skies
in Pasadena where I’m at work right now.
