It is very sad; and I recall experiencing those winds on a mild day and remarking about them, while my west coast colleagues were explaining to me just how intense those winds can be. I was really touched by the outreach efforts of Hillel. I have been saying for some time now that our church should have a plan in place (in advance) for emergencies and how we should be ready to minister to our community if ever necessary. Good post.

He's Navy and he's out to sea at the moment, but his family is in San Diego. No luck finding any of them. I hope they're okay. JMJ I’ve been trying to contact my cousin - to no awail.

I have been monitoring the police and fire scanners there on the Internet and it appears that the two houses I lived in are both either in imminent danger or already burned. My kids' grandmother, aunts and their families have been evacuated and their homes are also threatened, one of which I helped build. It is indeed a sad time and prayers for everyone involved are so richly needed. It's also a time for reflection. I really don't want to find someone to blame right now. I just want this test of our collective character, as individuals, as communities and as a nation, to bring us a bit closer together.

They are as vital as soldiers, police officers and doctors. Firefighters keep us safe. When they die, a piece of our safety dies with them......". Eric, I couldn't have said it better! “Firefighters risk their lives every day. They are as vital as soldiers, police officers and doctors. Firefighters keep us safe.

And lived on a 36 footer in Mission bay 5 blocks from Shamu for 2 years. I love San Diego, its almost perfect. I will pray. I lived in Mission Hills for 6 years, a block from Balboa park.
