Fires

My sister, Amy, is living west of Los Angeles. You know, where all those fires are. She writes:

Just wanted to check in with everyone about the fires. They are very close but at this time our house is not in immediate danger. The fire line and evacuation is about 5 miles away. We're covered in ashes, but no flames so we're thankful.

Hope the fires are put out soon...

Yikes. Glad to hear Amy's ok to date. Keep us posted, ok?

I, too, hope the fires are put out soon. The Cedar Fire, which is I believe about 15-20 miles away from campus, is now being called the biggest fire in California history.
School has been closed since Monday.
Aside from inhaling minute particles and going stir-crazy, Thomas and I are fine. See you (maybe) over Thanksgiving weekend!
