Ashley, you wouldn't happen to be related to Erica Borg who went to Our Lady of Peace would you?

The world is amazingly small sometimes.
I knew there couldn't be many Borg's with cabins up in Crestline. Tell your sister hi for me and if your place doesn't make it -feel free to come visit me (if mine doesn't burn, too).
If you continue to listen to the scanner and hear anything about Straight Way burning at the east end please email me at
ashvamp@aol.com
I'd really appreciate it.
I slept at the shelter in my car with my dog last night and drove to San Diego today- I'm beat.
take care.

The 7-11 is still standing in Gregory...good news for downtown so far!
I just called the Red Cross hotline: 909-383-5688
They said they do not have any specifics, except that the area directly around the Cliffhanger has been damaged and 25 homes have burned.

Does anyone have any info about the status of Coulter Pine? It is located between Playground & Crest Forest? Our house is on that street and it's been so frustrating trying to find info on the news.
Thank goodness for this site. My best to everyone.
Eric

here are some aerial pics activefiremaps.fs.fed.us/image_data/geoTiff/2003299/old/crefl1_A2003299183156-2003299184342_250m_old_Stamp_143.jpgI think I have located Crestline on this map by finding Lake Silverwood and Lake Arrowhead (which with Lake Gregory form an odd triangle). I have no way to note this on the picture. My advice is to find a map which shows the lakes in the mountains and compare them. If you click on the center of the picture with color to enlage- in the center are our mountains. Silverwood is the easiest to spot b/c of its shape- almost like a blobby capital "I". Arrowhead is the next big one to the right of that, but Gregory is too small to really show up. hope this helps some. -ashley blalock |

I have a brother in law in VOE he is stiill there and okay. I call him each day for update. I have gotten lots of conflicting reports. But sounds like part of Top town is burnt and 25 homes lost. I've also heard Venus in Skyland and Devils Cyn in CPP. We may not go home for 3-4 days. Last I heard Johnnies Market is still standing but closed. Trying to stay positive. My home is in CPP near Job's Peak any info is appreciated.
Clare : )
