Evacuated!!!

Many of you know that I live in San Diego County, more specifically, Del Dios, which is in the county of San Diego in Southwest area of Escondido. I live very close to Lake Hodges, if you saw the information about Lake Hodges, Rancho Santa Fe and Del Dios areas that were affected by the Witch Fire, that was me!!

My family and I were evacuated from our home on Monday morning very early... we were actually sleeping and had no idea that the fire was SO CLOSE!

My husband returned home on Thursday to see if and what the damage was. To our good fortune we still have a home and not much damage! We are so lucky! Besides a destroyed yard, hazardous air quality and being in another state we are doing well and hope to be back to our normal lives/routine by Monday.

I will be returning home with my children on Sunday. We did not feel comfortable being in our area with the bad air quality and two very young children who need to go outside and play. We are happily staying in Flagstaff Arizona until the weekend. Great air and good friends, what more could we ask for?

We are all safe, our dogs too! Our neighbors are in good shape too, thank goodness!

I will be in touch no later than Monday evening and I appreciate your patience and understanding during this past week.
