David,

I returned to Paradise Mountain this morning. There are no road blocks whatsoever. I don't understand why they say Paradise Mountain is still closed, when there is nobody even checking IDs at the junction of Lake Wohlford and Paradise Mountain Rd., as there were yesterday. Perhaps this is the "voluntary evacuation" that they should have done up here Monday instead of the "mandatory evacuation" that they actually performed?

David,
Thank you so much for all of the ongoing information which was much more accurate than what was on the news.

Arrived on Paradise Mountain this morning. So glad to be home. The air quality here was much better than San Marcos and further west.

I think the reverse 911 worked very well. Having gone through the Paradise fire in 03, this was much less stressful.

How about Cole Grade Road between McNally and 76? Does anyone know if that's been opened yet?

Thanks so much.

I want to add my voice to those who are grateful for the information you have provided over this last week. Your posts were the only real, dependable information I could find, you were the one who let me know that my road, my house was safe.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
