L.A. is so huge - and during the day it would take me roughly an hour to drive to her home. At night - less traffic - maybe 45 minutes.

The fear is that the wind will kick up - which it does in the morning - it is 9:45 am here. The embers are just huge and they can quickly start other fires.

But the fires are close to Kelly's area. Because she would be away from home she wanted them to be safe just in case.

Karen, Kelly's Mom was here - and she mentioned that the kitties will have to stay in their carriers at her house. I don't think she or her husband care much for cats.
