Local Fires





For those who haven't heard. There are quite a few local fires burning. It's been about 4 years since we had this problem, this bad. This year it's worse.

These are some pictures from our house, and from the corner gas station. It's bad. Ashes in the air. Smoke EVERYWHERE. Our neighbors are packing their cars. My parents got all their important papers together in a pile. We went and filled all the cars up with gas, while we were there, cars were lining up, and they raised the gas prices. We are about 5 miles away from the path where a fire is. If the wind shifts, our neighbor told us we will be in danger. Kinda freaky really. My allergies are going crazy!!!! The santa ana winds are gusting. This is the WORST fire North County has ever seen, the news just said.

I keep praying that we will be ok, and that those who HAVE evacuated will be ok and be comforted.
