My City Is Up In Flames :-( Yes, San Diego
 

i have friends who have lost their homes, friends retired parents who lost their beautiful homes they spent their whole life working so hard for, and poof. up in smoke. this has all made me very sad, especially since i heard the news as i was driving my U-Haul truck from San Francisco to San Diego to move into my new place only to find that it's not there anymore.

please understand if i am not readily available via ICQ today, but do send me an email if you have any questions.

please keep all of the 300,000 mandatory evacuees in your mind, along with the rest of the people that they're just recommending evacuate. schools are closed today and the mayor is urging everyone to stay home.

pink light,

tASSy

Come to Jerome AZ and wait for the fires to Stop !!

Is not so far away and would be some fun too...!!

The fire is out of control...must be hell to see it first hand.

I'm very sorry for your loss, and you're in my prayers along with all the other evacuees.

Seems like yesterday you lived in Snottsdale, AZ... unfortunate what is happening in SoCal. :(

Sorry to hear about that..

Be safe Tassy!

Yeah, probably not the best time to move to San Diego.

Where are you holed up now? If you want to hang in the South Bay for a few, you can.

No fires here, and won't be.

:Oh crap
I would say that sounds about right :Oh crap

Sorry to hear that tassy... We had a couple close calls out at my grandmas place in canyon country in the last two days.. It some scary shit.. Luckily her place was saved but some up the road were not so lucky.

Well that sucks, well let's hope all will be well very soon for you San Diego guys, many people I know there..

Hope noone gets burned and noone will get fucked up by an insurance company then.. I have gone through that once once my mother's shop fell down in flames couple of years ago completely and they did fucked up with her... business just went down and the total debts were paid off just recently..

that's really really sad, good thing my sister and her family moved to Nevada before this thing happened.

I'm very sorry to hear that Tassy.

I hope you guys are able to control this fire.

:(

The whole thing is just shocking to watch... :(

I was going to make a smart ass comment about you coming out Vegas, but figured I'd just offer up some thoughts and prayers to you and others who've lost everything in this fire. It will be even more tragic if they really are able to prove it was arson that started it all...

My City Is Up In Flames :-( Yes, San Diego

Location: NorCal Forever!




Uh huh.....

They don't usually call a fire arson without having a good reason. You can be pretty sure it was arson.

Good Luck!

I also live in SD, I am in Cabo right now, but my thoughts and prayers are with my fellow San Diego frineds and neighbors...

Actually the fire was started by a downed electrical pole.

At least the first fire was.

To be honest, the only one I heard arson mentioned with is the Irvine fire. But I have not turned the tv on today.

Same here about watching tv.
But the first I know for sure was a downed power line. Came down in a gust that was about 100mph.

The sparks ignited some dry brush, and the people that saw it called the fire dept. Me, I would have tried to put it out.

I've got plans to go to San Diego in April, hopefully there's still something left :(

500,000 homes now? Jesus. Trying to find some kind of silver lining in this, like it's cleansing the Earth or whatever, but I can't really find anything good about everyone losing their homes.

evacuated, not burned

"The 16 wind-fed wildfires have destroyed 1,500 homes and forced half a million to flee over the last four days ? the largest evacuation in the state?s history."

I feel ya, Im in san diego to and thankfully diddnt have to evacuate. I can still smell and see smoke. I wish the best of luck to ya tassy

Sorry to hear that tassy, very sad. It's crazy. California is on fire. It's insane.

shit... take care!

oh lordy.
this crazy weather.
you can stay with us if you want :)

Hey tAssy,

I'm very sorry to hear about this. I'm out of San Diego, so if I can help you find a place let me know. Good luck and best wishes.

The idea of being helpless when confronted by something like a massive fire is more troubling to me that what I might lose.

Tassy that sucks well I wish you the best of luck.

were you born and raise in San Diego also?

I feel for your loss, and the loss the others have as well...But isn't that what home owners insurance is for?

can't believe what they're going through

It's what happens when idiot's do not respect the nature around them.
COllectively the LA and San Diego does not have the biggest and brightest minds in the USA.

I love it when Mother Nature kicks mankinds ass, especially ones so busy with thier lives flicking cigarretes out the window blabbering on there cell phones all day on the roads.

I am never surprised really about Southern California Fires.

Crazy shit.

Boy am I ever glad my son shipped out from SD to Hawaii, just a few weeks ago. I can not imagine what it must be like, seeing everything you worked so hard for, go up in smoke.

I have kept you all in my prayers.

Sorry to hear that things are going bad in that area

Tassy, hang in there! Life "ain't" easy sometimes, and San Diego County has been dealt a terrible hand this time:-(.

I hope you find a comfortable rental, one in a safe area (I'm in the UTC area, with lots of cement to sorta protect folks from fires), and that the hassles you're presently enduring soon turn to good things.

I've got the Sunday newspaper with the rentals section -- LMK if you need it.
