It's really bad over here. We're lucky enough that in the center of San Diego where we live, we're not touched directly by the fires. We can smell a bit of smoke, but that's it.
We're actually in the position to host people rather than evacuate, and we hope to be able to.
I heard about the wildfires. I hope all is well with you. Be in touch and see you soon.

You can start your own group in san diego in our site and invite your new friends and neighbors to join and slowly build awareness towards driving less, buying hybrid cars and spending more time in the close community instead of driving around long distanses. This will be a viable short term solution till the real long term green neighborhood design will kick in.
Good luck

Eliana's feet are delightfull...are you still saving her for Shoham? Looking forward to read your french-californian input on our social responsibility discussions. Are there any sustainability efforts in S.D that you can share? Please feel free to visit our Rockland group to read what we do around town to secure better future for our kids. You should pay special attention to my sunstainable tips for conserving energy and $$$ in your home. I am running a GREEN HOME since we moved to valley cottage and am saving money and helping the enviroment as well. I hope to see you soon in NY.
