San Diego Fires

[Ponine]

Good luck with that.
I just heard that there was a fire near my house, close enough that if its a REAL fire, it'll get to my family before I can....
I cant get through via cel or land line.

(I also cant confirm the fire is near my home via any news media, so I am not screaming in panic yet)

If there is anything I can do for your in-laws, let me know. I assume they went to Qualcomm?

The in-laws were reached (Susan's mother talked to the aunt and Susan's father talked to the uncle). It is the college roommate I cannot reach. I don't know his carrier.

reached I understood, but if they evacuated to Qualcomm Stadium, they may need something as the days progress. That is what I am willing to help with if need be.

Good luck on the old roomie. I hope you find him.

Text messages often get through when calls will not.
