It really has been something to see, just incredible. People really took
care (and continue to take
care) of others. People opened their homes to total strangers, and many also took in pets to foster. In fact, of the 100,000 evacuated, only 15,000 or so needed to utilize emergency shelters. And I cannot say enough about our leadership. From our Mayor to CEMA (same as FEMA) to our front line first responders, the response was rapid and efficient.
