I hope my in-laws don't lose their place; there's a lot of photos and stuff there. Fortunately, they're well enough off that they'll be OK if they lose it; they have other places to live.
Fucking crazy. I finally found a map - looks like they'r in an evacuation area, but not a burn area (yet).
You're in an OK spot, Steve?

Actually, it seems like we're in one of the few areas that
hasn't been evacuated. My in-laws are here with us; they had to leave their home yesterday.
We were evacuated four years ago, during the Cedar Fire. The "peak" in this photo is the roof of my garage:
I think we're gonna' be cool this time around, thankfully. If we're not, well, we'll deal with it. If we have to leave, we leave. Sure, it would suck to lose our house and all our stuff, but we can always get a new house and more stuff.
My office and our factory closed at 8:30 yesterday morning, and we were closed today. Given the scope of the evacuations, I'm bettin' we're closed tomorrow, too...
