    Cliff, thanks for the concern...

    The 3 fires (so far) are just devastating...

    Those of us in the flats are dealing with wind damage... and continually checking in with those we know in harms way...

    Thanks again

    Prayers out to all residents and Police/Fire Department personnel related to affected areas. So tragic. It hit close to home in Camarillo November where we had to evacuate for a day.
    Here's a shot of an unlucky P-Car owner about a mile or two away from me. The house survived any damage.

    I hope all you folks are OK. I'll put in some prayers. The stress must be awful.
    Heard on the news some long time business and restaurants in Malibu where lost.
    I grew up in SoBay in the 50's and 60's. Is that area OK? I have family in Carpinteria.
    I remember big fires in the 60's. I was too young in the 50's. Take care everybody.
