As destructive and devastating as these fires were, it's truly remarkable how well the emergency support systems have rescued so many and with no fatalities.
I live about 20-25 minutes east from some of the worst fires in Lake Arrowhead and thankfully the fires didn't get blown further my way.
There was smoke, dust and ash in the air for a few days and some school restriction for outdoor activity. But otherwise, all is well in Moreno Valley. Please send healing energy and support to the firefighters and volunteer crews who got us all through the week.
Namaste,
Lydia

SAN DIEGO - They know what the winds can do. They forecast them. Fight the fires the winds fan. Ready for evacuations that, in years past, never came. They thought they knew, until seven days of fury began a week ago.
From almost the beginning, this Santa Ana was different somehow....
