Hmmm... yeah, sounds smarter to me. Dumb to keep you there- the company's liable for any lung issues that arise later.

Wear a mask? I'm not impressed. If it's that bad it is definitely time to get the heck out of Dodge.

I'm home. We had some power surges and our battery back-ups were failing. Took care of that and finally left. Not sure if I am going in tomorrow.

Hello. I'm back.

And...WOW! I am absolutely blown away by the tremendous response and amount of support offered by everyone in this thread. After the emotional roller coaster that would have been exciting even for CoasterMatt, I am quite frankly, moved. I don't know what to say other than thank you. Thank you all.

I know many offered support, others went so far as to come to the rescue (not knowing at the time they had shut down my street to incoming traffic. It is appreciated and then some.

Kevy and NA were in regular contact but I didn't realize they were kind enough to constantly update the board. Also BTD and I had a few txt exchanges and helped me out immensely yesterday as well.

So more to come, including a full "trip report" with a few shots I managed to capture. But I am at work now and need to get back to that. I will get my PC out of my Lightning tonight and hook it back up, try to get the house back in order.

Again, you are all amazing.

I'm just happy you have a house to get back in order. :snap:

Ditto what he said! I'm glad you're ok and your house is still there!

So I heard on NPR this morning that as a result of these fires and weather patterns Long Beach has been setting records for poorest air quality - I think we now have an answer as to why Not Afraid's been feeling like crap lately.

Glad to hear from you, NM!:cheers:

NM, it was touching to watch from here, as well.

I'm glad everything worked out as well as it did.
