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...

I wouldn't be surprised if my in-laws lose their house. They've been evacuated, and as of this morning (last time I heard from my wife) the fire was 1 mile away or less.



At least they're safe, but it's still unfortunate.
