New SoCal Fires..
So looks like we're in the grips of new fires.. I can just see smoke.. but thankfully a looong way from us..
Yorba Linda is being particulary hard hit.. Cybersecretary is from there.. Thoughts with her, hoping her and her family is ok.. I have text her.. but no news yet..
Looking at the news, i'd be very surprised if she hadn't been evacutated.. Get in touch L!!!

My daughter called and said that are getting the rolling black outs. She decided not to venture far today as the drivers will really be crazy with flashing traffic lights

My sons are in Norco.....so I'm a bit worried. But fires and So Cal are synonymous.

Re: New SoCal Fires..
Yey - we are fine, a night away at friends in Irvine, OH arrived back today to LAX from Prague via LHR and so I am glad we are all together. Totally freaked out by being evacuated and not let back into our house - but hey ho - everything stinks but at least we have stuff to stink.
Thanks to Laura (SambaPink) and all the other Mission Viejo ladies for all their best wishes - hope everyone else is doing good!
Now, back to my wine!
PS whilst waiting at my house with friends for their road to open, their 3 year old cracked her head open on a cabinet and had to be taken to the ER in an ambulance - BRING IT ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: New SoCal Fires..
I heard yesterday that a friends friend lost her house in Yorba Linda.. The houses that were affected seemed to be so random.. So glad you were one of the lucky ones L (so to speak!)
