So Cal is ablaze once more. Several fires are now burning throughout the southland, and two of them have hit home for us. Mike's mom was evacuated from her Yorba Linda home this morning as the Yorba Linda/Corona fire crept close to her neighborhood. She packed up her cat and some belongings and headed west to Garden Grove to stay with Mike's aunt. I offered to have her come out here with us and help me paint and wallpaper -- but she went the other way. Fast! Actually, the real reason was because the freeway she has to take to get out here was closed in both directions. Upwards of 4,500 homes have been evacuated in the Yorba Linda fire. Here is a photo from earlier today:

The Sylmar fire is near David's house. The photo below was taken from his sister-in-law's front yard. Thankfully, this one is staying further away from them than the fires last year did. Let's pray the fire continues away from them -- and that the firefighters can get them both out quickly!
