She and her husband are in Malibu. They are packed and ready to go, but haven't had to leave yet.
No services and texts are not entirely reliable, but we've been lucky.

Their parents lost everything in the 1960s and they lost everything in the Woosey fire. Hopefully it doesn't happen again.

This is such devastation. So many people have lost it all.
