I called my brother in Washington and he had no idea about our fires either. I drove up the street Saturday morning and took some *pictures. Fortunately, except for the smoke and ash, I was a safe distance away. There were many more who were close enough to take some heart breaking photos of actual homes burning. I have met Jen and Barbara on Twitter but neither in person. Yet I feel compelled to help out a fellow educator. It could have been me. After all, at one time I lived just a few blocks from where the big fire that took her home started, in the foothills of Sylmar.
