Mekanamom Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 My parents' summer home is in an area directly threatened by one of the fires in CA. The homes in the area have all been evacuated and the fire is only 2 miles away, blowing their way, and 100% uncontained. :crying: It's much worse for those living in the area full time. Again- we're getting hazy smoke here which makes the heat seem more intolerable, but so many have it so much worse. :grouphug: To those suffering.

Mom2legomaniacs Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 How scary! I hope they stay safe!:grouphug: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekanamom Posted July 10, 2008 Author Share Posted July 10, 2008 Thanks! Thankfully my parents weren't there when the evacuations took place- but they are in close contact with their next door neighbors who live in the area and stand to lose everything. :sad: My parents only live there part time, so it's not as bad for them as it is for many others. Boy- do I feel for everyone directly dealing with these fires, including (especially) the firefighters. It's just been non-stop for them.

Mom2legomaniacs Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 I cannot imagine how awful that must be. I know that keeping them safe is a blessing, but faced with the prospect of losing everything you have is just horrible. The uncertainty of things must be very exhausting. Prayers for all!

Remudamom Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 How awful.. we'll be praying for them. How close is it to you? If you have to evac do you have a safe place for your horses/sheep? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
