We're having a barbecue!

Okay, so the title to this post is horribly insensitive, but whatever.

So, I'm sure you've all heard of the Southern California Fires. What? You thought they were only in Malibu? Yeah, I love how the news reports on the million dollar homes that are being lost, but forgets the little guys...you know, the 600,000 people evacuated and the 1200 homes lost in San Diego. But, I digress.

We were evacuated on Monday morning. The fire burned through a neighborhood just a few miles north of us. Thankfully, short of terrible air, and a lot of ash, our neighborhood was untouched. We were able to go home Wednesday afternoon. The fires are still burning to the east, but we are no longer in harm's way.

We were lucky and able to stay with a friend instead of having to stay at an evacuation center.

Bland, boring post...sorry. I'm just drained.

The title might be inappropriate, but at least you can still make jokes in this time of tragic lives. How did your kids handle the fires? Was Drake off from work? What was really fun about this adventure?
