Grannyg | Sunday, October 26, 2003 - 08:08 am     Please, all of you take care of yourselves. I know this is so stressful on all of you. Thanks for the graphic weinermr. MsEggie, I would insist that DD come back home today. She needs to be out of that if at all possible. MsMoonie, I hope you check back in soon. Thoughts and prayers for all of you. |

Kittee3 | Sunday, October 26, 2003 - 08:16 am     Just wanted to pop in and say to all of you that you are in my thoughts and prayers -- especially Moondance and Cjr who are closest to the fires - please stay safe with your families! Thanks for your updates. So far we are not affected here in LA, but I do know what you are going thru as I was out on the firelines photographing the Malibu Fires some years ago. I will never forget the heat and the smell. {{{{ Moondance and Cjr }}}} One a lighter note: MsMoon posted: I am tempted to try a raindance and call on my ancestors! Keep thinking calm winds and cool weather. We took some pix... when this is over I will post them. Does that mean you will post pictures of your raindance? :D |
Egbok | Sunday, October 26, 2003 - 08:22 am     Kittee, I look forward to seeing your pictures. |
Kittee3 | Sunday, October 26, 2003 - 08:50 am     Hi Eggie, Pictures are filed away somewhere-- one of these days they will get organized I am glad to hear that your dd is ok!!! |
Cjr | Sunday, October 26, 2003 - 09:10 am     Thanks all for the caring words and thoughts, they have definitey helped keep me sane! I am much better today and realize how lucky my family and I are. I can see the smoke but not too much fire this side of the mountain here today. I am waiting anxiously to hear about a few friends' homes. I know that people in Orange County are covered in ash also. Not good for breathing purposes! Keep safe everyone and all raindances are welcome! Just hoping all the people in other areas that have fires close by stay safe. If anyone out this way needs anything please let me know. |
Moondance | Sunday, October 26, 2003 - 09:12 am     Just checking in... we have had power on and off. It is so thick with smoke. I have all the carriers ready for the kitties. They are staying close to me, I think they know... We have been hosing down outside along with the neighbors. It is errie. Hard to put in words. It is directly in front of us to the left and to the right. Ash is everywhere. Cowboy and I are going to the horses shortly... the ranch person has things under control right now. There are sirens everywhere. It is just a weird feeling. My thoughts are with every here in California |
Egbok | Sunday, October 26, 2003 - 09:13 am     Okay Kittee, I must have misunderstood your earlier post...I thought you had some fire pictures to post. Thanks for your concern about my dd. She's doing fine and wants to stay in her apartment, which is 5 miles from where some homes are burning right now. I'm feeling okay with her decision...so far. I'll be glued to the TV which is showing some awesome aerial shots of her area! |
Cjr | Sunday, October 26, 2003 - 09:22 am     {{{{Moondance}}}} eerie is the only word I could come up with too. Make sure you leave yourself enough time to get out safely. I am praying that you, your animals, your loved ones and home make it through this safely. The roads are a mess so keep safe! I am going to go learn a raindance now! |
Moondance | Sunday, October 26, 2003 - 09:28 am     Thanks Cjr... hugs back to you! I am going to sign off but it is funny how I wanted to check in here and call my Mom. This place is like family |
Pamy | Sunday, October 26, 2003 - 09:33 am     Glad you are doing ok Moonie...I thought of you and all of our people out that way. Even out here in Riverside, the soot is everywhere, you can smell fire, the sky is clearer today but yesterday, one side was black and the other was bright blue Hi Kittee, cant wait to see your pics! |
Egbok | Sunday, October 26, 2003 - 09:34 am     Moonie and your loved ones hang in there! |
Hippyt | Sunday, October 26, 2003 - 11:32 am     I'm so worried about all you guys! I was just reading two of the largest fires have now merged. Take care,and keep us updated when you can! |
Cjr | Sunday, October 26, 2003 - 11:49 am     My friend just called me and said she had to leave the Walmart 1 mile from my house, the field directly behind it has huge flames. The winds have shifted and we are now covered in ashes and sirens are going off again. I am just waiting to hear if there is an evacuation order. Dang, just when I thought it was clearing around here. Keep safe all, I'm trying to find some news. No easy feat when Sunday sports are on, lol. |
Egbok | Sunday, October 26, 2003 - 11:50 am     I'm near the coastal area and I'm here to tell you that the air is so smokey and it's not nice to breathe out there right now. I can only imagine what it's like where my dd and ds are right now. They say they are safe but it's dark, gloomy, and smells awful right now and yes, hard to breathe as well. Ash is everywhere for them and here in my area too but not as thick as what they are dealing with. They won't come home though...<sigh> And just an FYI, I'm really not that bad of a parent...LOL!! |
Cjr | Sunday, October 26, 2003 - 11:51 am     Fox news just announced 4 new fires in San Diego! Good grief, I just wanna cry now. This is horrible! |
Weinermr | Sunday, October 26, 2003 - 11:51 am     Oh no Cjr! Stay safe, and get out of there if you need to. |
Cjr | Sunday, October 26, 2003 - 11:52 am     Egbok, as a Mom, I wish they would come home to you. Just cuz I know you'll feel better! Take care |
Egbok | Sunday, October 26, 2003 - 11:58 am     Thanks Cjr. They are doing okay and we're keeping in touch by cell phone, as their landlines are now down. |

Whoami | Sunday, October 26, 2003 - 12:15 pm     How close are these to Burbank? My aunt lives near Universal Studios. I assume if that area were threatened, the news would be all over it. My prayers are still with all of you Southern Cal folk! |
