    I still wish I could do something... I feel so helpless... and it doesn't help that Armand is down in San Diego right now helping evac some of the SD peeps. :(

    And I haven't heard anything about the fire near me!! I don't know it it's gone or still burning!!

    *causes a torrent of rain to fall from the sky, putting the fire out*

    Well, that's what I could do if I could :( I really wish I could do something. All we have out here in OC is the ash from the fire. It's a little hard to breathe, but nothing like what you guys are experiencing. I can't imagine what you must be going through. My prayers are with you all.

    In even worse news, they're saying that we might get rolling blackouts tomorrow as well. I swear, this week just keeps getting better :_|

    Storm, I am terribly sorry to hear about your loss. :~( I am glad to hear that you and your loved ones are safe. As it's been said, that is a blessing itself. (I lost a family member in a fire once, and it made the need to pick through rubble and such so much different....but that's another story and another time.) I know empty words cannot do much, but know you are being thought of and prayed for. I hope that as time goes on we will be able to help you and your family in some way, and I know the entire VCFF would be more than willing to pitch in and help.

    <hugs> May you all be safe.

    Like Everyone has said Storm, everyone is OK!!! everything will be replaced, and things will get better...I promise! meanwhile, The fire is horrible...for the past week, my family has been pretty lucky. We had no ash or smoke, and could barely smell the fire. We could see it though. well today, everything around my house is covered in an orange haze, and it's really REALLY hard to breathe...there is ash falling like snow...it's insane...

    ha!......all of SD is on fire, the fire was less than a mile from my house before the storm blew it south. Miramar Air Base is on fire, all sorts of craziness is going on...I'm sure you guys have seen it on the TV......

    Aiiieeee! I am glad to hear you people are all okay. My home is somewhere down there, but I do not think the fires have reached Chino/Ontario. I'm sorry to hear that some of you lost your homes, that is one of my biggest fears and you will all be in my thoughts. Though I don't know any of you personally, we are all Star Wars Fans and that ties us together.

    And with the loss of one of our own, this seems to be a bad week for both ends of California's Fan Forces. :( *Giant group hugs for the Inland Empire and San Francisco*

    May the Force be with us all.

    You guys seriously don't know how tempted I was to skip school and drive to Yucaipa today.. However, I had my Buick, and that wouldn't make it past Riverside. :(

    Listen to this: (how much does THIS suck??)

    President Bush has declared a state of emergency for San Diego county, Ventura County, San Bernadino county, and Los Angles county, which means federal aid is coming. But that does nothing for us in Riverside county.

    Andrea, I sure hope that you guys aren't considered Riverside (but judging by the area code, I think you are.) :(

    It's not snowing ash as much anymore and I cant really smell it cause of the Hills behind my house. (yay!)

    And I can't see it anymore from the freeway or the roof so thats good.

    But it's been moving back in the other direction so it still sucks.

    Thank goodness it's not threatening east highland anymore, but i heard that they are evacuating Forest Falls because there is a fire up there now. there is talk about evacuating big bear. a friend of the family had to leave work because he's part of the citizens patrol and he's helping the evacuations in forest falls.
