Oh my gosh, I can't believe this is happening again. Thank God her kitts are safe. They all must be so scared. Mega prayers on the way.

[Daisy and Delilah]

My thoughts and prayers are going out right away for everybody. Be safe, Kelly and family!!

I sent Kel a txt that we were praying for her.
She txted me back "THANK YOU" and she'd call me later.
I told her I was at work and that I may not be able to answer.
She said She'd leave a VM..
but that was 2 hours ago and haven't heard anything.
its possible due to the fires that the cell reception isn't very good?
and internet connection as well?

As of 6:05 PST all evacuation orders have been lifted in the fire areas. GOOD NEWS.

[zippy-kat]

I've been away from the computer all day. Thank goodness all is well right now. Regardless, I'm sending prayers for safety. It must be so scary!

[NoahsMommy]

THANK YOU SO MUCH for your prayers and good wishes! You are all wonderful!

We are OK...hopefully for good. ALL roads coming into ALL neighborhoods over here are closed. Only residents are allowed in. Thank goodness my car was registered with my parents address, because my license has my old address on it. You can only get in with ID.

We can see the flames from our place and we're watching the planes and helicopters dropping water on the fire. Its really neat watching them do that.

There are a ton of fire engines, police cars and fire/police persons around.

We feel pretty safe.....although my mom just said the wind just picked up and they can see some flair ups. Continued prayers are much appreciated. (thank you!!)

May God Bless all those affected by these fires....especially the fire fighters and police officers (etc) that are so amazing throughout all this.

Lots of Love,
Kelly, Mom & Jerry

Kelly *IS* kind 'close' to the Sesnon Fire ... like less than 2 miles west of the
latest fire map perimeter! That's CLOSE!

Here's the latest Cal Fire map of the Sesnon Fire >>>
http://www.fire.ca.gov/downloads/inc...ire_101408.pdf

Kelly's Folks live in a newer development that's not fully shown on this map;
her house is about a mile north of the Route 118 marker on the upper portion of the map -
and about 1-2 miles west of the Sesnon Fire perimeter!

Here's the Cal Fire Incident summary page >>>
http://www.fire.ca.gov/index_incidents_sesnon.php
* Total Personnel working the Sesnon Fire = 2, 338
* 243 Firefighting Engines (Fire Trucks)
* 9 Wildfire Crews (10-20 person teams cutting fire lines by HAND)
* 2 Watertenders(2-3000 gallon water haulers)
* 18 Dozers (Modified Fire Dozers to cut fire lines off-road)
* 4 Helicopters (for recon and making aerial water drops on the fire)

** COST to fight Sesnon Fire for 2 days (so far) = $2.5 MILLION !!

Let's all Pray for a quiet, wind-free night, and a low-wind day tomorrow!

My thoughts and prayers go out to Kelly, her kitties and her family.

[4 Dog Mother]

How scary! I am praying for Kelly and her family and all the other families as well as all the ones out there trying to stop the fires and protect the people. What a huge job! I can't even imagine how it would feel to know that your home and everything in it may be destroyed by the fires.

When Carl was in the Army some 30+ years ago and stationed at Ft. Huachuca Az., which is based at the base of the Huachuca mountains, fires broke out there. While no homes were threatened, the fires had to be put out and so the Army got involved and Carl's unit was sent up to work on making fire breaks etc. It was very scary knowing he was up there - I could see the fires from our windows and especially at night, it was very frightening. It wasn't until later I found out that he and his unit got caught in an area where the fire changed courses and came back at them. From our windows you could see the planes drop the water and flame retardant. I was so glad when he came home!

[NoahsMommy]

Good Morning, All!

We had a good night, in that the fire seems to be nearly or all out over night. The winds are horrible this morning and are westbound (towards us), but I don't seem much flame and only white smoke - so that's good.

I haven't left home yet, so I'm not sure if our roads are still blocked.

When I get home later this afternoon, I'll update more.

Thanks again for the prayers and good thoughts.

Hugs,
Kelly, Mom & Jerry
