OT ginger area fire

you're so right, Taria. when I was training horses, we would often winter at Del Mar Fairgrounds [near San Diego]. I don't recall the year the winter was so bad. Remember moving my horses from one barn to another when half the area flooded out, then the dam broke up in the Valley. All kinds of people came to help, and we evacuated to Los Alamitos Race Track near Anaheim. We had very expensive racehorses tied to chicken wire fencing, waiting for horse trailers and vans.

My oldest best friend is communications director at UCSB. He sent me an email yesterday that they are assisting the campus of Westmont College as best they can to get services restored and patched up. Paul has had a lot of experience in that, and ia often called on for crisis [unfortunately]

G> Julia > > Anne, where did you get the addresses of the houses that had burned?

I just mapped it Dreamy. If I have things right I believe that is on the side of the freeway that not the fire side, for the most part. There don't seem to be any structures in Brea city proper that are listed. This link might help:

had over 10K folks evacuated (just in this area) and have lots well below 200 homes so the odds are good anyway, but if it is your house all bets are off. Taria

Thank you so much Taria! They're not too far from downtown so it looks like they're okay so far. I had no idea that fire was so close! I thought most of the fires were further north. Again, Taria, thank you so much!

We had good news tonight. DH's cousin in Santa Barbara is safely back in her house; she had called another cousin who then called me. Their house is okay, though some burned spots in the yard and on the gate. The house kitty-corner from them burned, so it was close.
