Quick note. Call your insurance agent. Some policies have a provision where they will pay to proactively put retardant on your home. It works. You have to ask and you have to have this provision.

Nothing but fire trucks heading in. People headed out. I got a great feeling. They will stop it.

1 or 2 beers at the BIL and I’m going to bed. Thanks.
Bated breath...hoping for good news.

Hoping for the best! We were evacuated earlier this summer and boy oh boy it sucks. I took some clothes , two generators and my old Tacoma. My wife tried to get the entire house into the Tundra.
I think since everything is insured then why drive yourself nuts trying to decide what to take. My wife still hasn’t put most of the stuff she took back.

a close friend's daughter lives there - I've known her since her birth - 30 years

Best wishes to all
