Ok so if you guys are watching the news, and know where I live, I thought you might be worried, so I wanted to post here really quick.
We evacuated our house as there are 8 large fires spanning all of San Diego county. The fire known as the Witch Creek Fire, has caused our entire town to be evacuated. Other whole towns have been evacuated as well. We originally evacated to my mom's friend's house in Rancho Bernardo, but were then evacuated again. Fortunately we made it out before the fire got too close and the freeway jammed up. A lot of the major freeways have been closed as the fires have jumped them. We are currently at my Aunt Monica and Uncle Steve's house in Santee. We are safe and sound and awaiting a more permanent place to evacuate to (as it is pretty full here with our cousins, Aunt and Uncle, and grandparents.)
We had enough forewarning to pack some of the more important things, and get all of the dogs loaded up. We had an extra truck, and itwas a really big blessing as Grandpa drove Dad's truck out (which was loaded with his work stuff) and Dad was able to load up a lot of important things in the back ofthe extratruck. I may not be at a place where I can update all you guys again for awhile, but just know that we're safe. Please keep us in your prayers.
