Back to Normal
I'm very happy to write that things are back to normal and we are all ok. Again, I am very touched by all of you who wrote or called to check on us. Thank you.
With the enormous size of the fire, all that was damaged were about 15 homes, several cars, boats, and 3 trailer homes were completely destroyed. Of course, quite a few people were evacuated but all in all, no injuries at all. I've updated my Flickr account with some more pics, if anyone wants to check 'em out.
The girls had school today but I kept them out anyway. Apparently, there were over 300 kids absent from the schools today! Lots of people got evacuated and didn't even get home until late last night. The girls were exhausted and I decided to keep them home to rest. Besides, Youngesthad to go to the pedi for a burst eardrum. The poor kid, she was in quite a bit of pain last night. Now, it's just leaking. I know - gross!
Well, off to try to stuff these little buggers into bed. G'night!

So glad to hear that you guys are ok. How scary!
Sad that other people lost their homes, but glad to hear no one was hurt.

Glad things are back to normal. But we all know "normal" isn't really all that "normal," don't we? ;)
