Hopefully the fires will be contained by then and won't affect him starting work and you guys joining.

Considering we lost two homes to natural disasters in the past two years, we have friends evacuating and know a couple of families who lost their homes in the NoCal fires recently, I’m having so much anxiety about moving back.

I'm so sorry. I can definitely understand having anxiety about that.

The Del Mar Fairgrounds is the evacuation point for large animals (they have mainly horses, I think). They are accepting donations. Water/food/bedding, etc.

The photos of the fires are still awful. So far I only know one family who has lost their home but others who are evacuated further north. Is everyone still okay?

Sorry to resurrect an old thread, I just saw this, teared up, & thought word should be spread to help honor his memory. (I haven’t heard anything on the news)

Cory Iverson, 32, died today fighting the #Thomasfire in Southern California. It is the 4th largest fire in state history.

Cory was a fire apparatus engineer, part of CalFire’s San Diego unit.
He is survived by his wife & 2yo daughter.
His wife is expecting their 2nd child.
