StitchingAgain

This is a touchy, touchy subject for me as friends and family members lost homes in the Camp Fire in Paradise Ca last year. Unless you have a bag that you can grab and go, just go! One of my family members barely made it out alive because she took a moment to call and tell me she was evacuating. Literally one minute longer and she would be gone, killed by smoke or flames. Only what's alive is worth trying to save. Not even your antique wedding quilt. Not even the only picture you have of great aunt Tillie. Not even your precious keepsakes or your jewelry box. Nothing but the living is worth the risk. It is horrifying how fast a fire can move, not to mention the secondary fires that start when embers from the fire land on rooftops and such. If you ever have to evacuate, just please GET AWAY from the danger.
