A firestorm week in San Diego

October 28th, 2007

I’m back after an extremely crazy and stressful week here in San Diego. It is so crazy that SD is going through a Firestorm again, only four years after the last one. Last time, the flames burned within a quarter mile of our house, this time our area was relatively unaffected. However, pretty much any area that wasn’t effected last time, was effected this time. Words can not express what it is like to sit in shock and disbelief and on complete alert - for 48 hours - not knowing if you’ll have to run in a minutes notice. And we have been blessed enough to never have the horrific experience of having to literally run for your life from the flames, or having to jump in your pool and pray while flames pass over your head.

I’m in a state of ‘numb’. I can tell you that our firefighters and all those support personnel who came from far away pulled off some incredible miracles. They held the line at some of the most crucial areas in our county. And the shifts that they had to work is unbelievable. So, while San Diego’s losses are horrific, I can’t tell you how much worse it could’ve been without all those brave men and women.

Sending many prayers to all those who’ve experienced great losses this week…and many thanks to all those who gave so much to protect us.
