Been watching. Know that a few folks in Porter Ranch were not spared. Sad. Really hoping that we get a better turn on the weather and that the fire season goes out with a whimper.

Very glad to hear you're doing ok.

I can't imagine what you were going through. I am glad you and the kitties got out safely and that is what is important, but damn, the thought of losing a home that way. I have no words for that.

That vegetation is referred to as kindling in these parts.

Hope you have a shop vac to p/u the worst of that ash, watt a mess, be slopping around for long time, double your water bill just getting the smell outta the house.....much less the 'breeze' from outside....

Exhibit A: The window sills.

That looks all too familiar. Get your self a mask and goggles when you work on that stuff. You don't know what kind of things are in that dust. I just wanted to drive my house through a car wash.

Glad you're all ok, Better to dust and clean up a little ash, than to come back to nothing but a pile of it.

My Step Dad was working for Intel when Mount Saint Helens blew. They had a terrible time trying to keep the clean rooms clean as the volcanic dust is extremely fine and very abrasive. ( car prices plummeted too as the volcanic dust destroyed the engines from being sucked thru the intake )

Looks like these fires are highly annoying. Glad you are free and clear from certain doom!
