Christopher Lloyd says he has a "different awareness" after returning to his burned-out Montecito home.
The "Back to the Future" actor told ABC's "Good Morning America" that he wouldn't rebuild the $11 million home in the celebrity enclave northwest of Los Angeles. It was among dozens of homes lost in wildfires.
"You watch TV, you see these kinds of incidents happening here and there, but you look with a kind of detachment because it's happening ... elsewhere," he said, walking through the rubble. "But suddenly to be in the midst of it, it's a very different awareness."
Lloyd he'd been putting off organizing and storing memorabilia that he'd kept at the house.
"Kind of don't have to worry about that now," he said.
