Sunita's Update

We were allowed to return to our homes on Thursday afternoon. Our home is safe though our yard looked like a war zone. Our Garage and our yard were covered with a layer of fine black dust, dry leaves and objects that flew in from others yard. We had no power, phone and internet for several days. Pretty much felt like camping in our own home.
We had quite a bit of cleaning to do especially the kitchen which smelt of spoil food, I had to throw out a lot of food. One good reason to clean my entire refrigerator :)
I am very glad that my fishes in the pond survived the ordeal though the pond was covered with ashes and dry leaves and they went without food for several days, It was a day's job to get it cleaned. we have our power, phone connection all restored over the weekend and life is comming back to some normalcy for most of San Diego. Even though the fire is not all out I am hoping they will be able to contain it eventually.
Kirthi is back to school; about 20 teachers and around 348 students lost their home in his school district. I would like to thank you all on behalf of jay, kirthi and myself for all your support and prayers.
