Sounds wonderful!---and a lot like Pacific Crossroads!
Glad to know there are two wonderful churches in the heart of Hollywoodland.
Hope there are more!

Dufus is on his way to San Diego to tell everyone how much he cares -- yeah right! He was in the San Bernardino area -- I had him on mute so am not sure what he had to say.

I've been wondering about Santa's Village near Crestline too...childhood memories. And Pine Rose Cabins on Highway 189 in Twin Peaks. When I was growing up they were called Dowd's Cabins and owned by friends of my grandparents.

The fire is backing into Descanso, and should arrive this afternoon. US Forest Service has put a ton of resources in and are standing by. There's dozers working north of town. I'd say they'll be biting fingernails and watching the wind direction 'til morning.

re post no. 816.
According to news reports, at least one of the fires allegedly was started by a hunter who was lost.

They are also evacuating in the Chatsworth area -- Box Canyon, Twin Lakes, etc. and a small parts of the City of LA -- the girl reported that there is huge thick black smoke arising from the fire. This fire in Simi Valley was intentionally set -- report just came in.

I listened to Dufus on MSNBC earlier today, demanding that the Bush administration get out there and fix the inferno caused by his environazi policy YESTERDAY - of course, he didn't put it that way. Naturally, HIS ilk are not to blame. These devestating wildfires, caused by years of envirowacko, "fire is our friend" policy, are his fault and the fault of everyone who fought and sued to get these policies in place, but somehow this is the fault of a president who has only been in office three years.
Dufus didn't even bother asking for outside help until this morning. Now he's on an whining tour of the state. He makes me sick. Shame his recall couldn't have been retroactive.
