Reporting on the wildfires turns personal

I've been following KCBS TV's (CBS2) breaking news coverage of the Southern California wildfires online and I've seen that one of their San Diego colleagues had the unpleasant duty of reporting the destruction of his own home in those wildifres.

Fortunately, everybody had gotten out, no pets were in the house, so everybody was fine, but he had lived in that house for 25 years! My thoughts and prayers go out to him and his family for a positive resolution.
