We are Effected by the So-Cal Orange County Wild Fire!
Update: Thank you all for the concern! The fire came very close to our house yesterday – houses in our neighborhood caught fire in the morning forced us to evacuate – We got back home last night and our family is safe and sound as well as our home – That was the good news for us however, the fire is still raging the southland. This continuous updated Google map shows the situation off all the fires (our area fire called Santiago Fire)
Just a quick heads-up. Our family home is located in Orange County, area affected by the Orange County wild fire
We may be spending a night at the hotel if they evacuate us like the apartments across the street!
Don’t be surprised if we stop posting for a bit. Will be back to give you an update as soon as the situation gets better!
wow, it’s like where i live. This summer we had a lot of fire . The problem was the wind “Le mistral” because he can it can reach speeds exceeding 100 km / h.
So difficult fore firemen to close it. All summers is the same thing.
I will hop your family and you will be fine.
Good Luck!! Keep us informed. We’ll be here waiting and watching…
Hoping that you and your family will be OK and that the fires will not reach you. Good luck.
Is that an actual photograph from where you live? That looks terrible!
Please stay safe and keep us informed if you can.
All the best,
Stefan
Stay safe and keep us posted!
Hope you and yours are doing OK and that everything calms down and returns to normal soon …
I hope the situation will go better soon! Please take us informed on the situation! The pictures in the news are impressive I must admit whereas in France it is already a winter weather….

Very glad you got back safe and your house is allright. Must have been very scary…
We saw some video’s on the news and it looked pretty bad. (They also interviewed Britney Spears about it)
Thanks Stefan,
Yes, it was pretty scary when you see the fire comes right to your backyard!
Regarding Britney Spears, I didn’t know she is our neighbor..
Well she changes appearance quite often, one day she has hair and the next day she hasn’t. But it was also about the fires in Malibu where quite some famous people have houses, so I guess she lives there.
Glad you got back home, but I know it must still be scary.Know we are all thinking of you and sending good vibes for the well being of you and yours.
good Luck and stay safe.

Thanks Dee!
This is a picture taken from my backyard yesterday right after the firefighters put out the fire:

Wow, trees look almost the same where I live but here it’s because the leaves are falling off because of the cold. :S
Sending my thoughts and prayers for you and all those affected by the fires. God Bless!!
