Why I’m Leaving Pacific Palisades
Our home burned down in the January 7 Palisades Fire. After such a calamity, the grief and sense of displacement never really go away, but dealing with the aftermath is itself all-consuming. My wife and I have so much to do: meet with insurance companies, city agencies, and attorneys; visit our burned-out lot to oversee debris removal; hire engineers and architects to determine the condition of our foundation and the prospects of rebuilding.
