| Santa Ana Winds & Yorkies don't Mix! Here is a video from my phone (really bad but you'll hopefully be able to see it). I took Jazzie, Jolie & Jen to work with me today because the fire in Orange County was getting close to my home and didn't want to take a chance. This is them on their morning break - It doesn't hav the preview but if you click on the "Arrow" it plays. -
And here is a picture of all the smoke from the fire that you can see from my office.

| Wow... Please know you are in my prayers and thoughts. I have family in North San Diego County (thats where I grew up) They are ALL on watch. I have family in Escondido, Carlsbad and Oceanside. Our middle son lives in Woodland Hills (inland from Malibu) This is very scary! Please be safe and you are in my prayers.

How close are you to the fire??!!! Are you up near the 261/Santiago Canyon junction? Your poor girls! Have they been acting nervous? Looking at their video, their little faces while the wind blows them around.....makes me want to scoop them right up. Thank goodness you could take them to work with you;otherwise you would fret and worry the whole day, wandering about them. With the fires last year, I could see the flames from the hill we live on. Made me very nervous. There is so much dry brush in Yorba Linda, and with these winds, I must say I am concerned. Please keep us updated. If you are nervous after work, please call me. You can bring the girls to my house if you don't feel like going home, or if you think they will be skittish where you are. Hugs to you, and so happy to see you around here again, Lauren

| You guys be safe out there in California. Good thing the girls are tied to that leash or they would be flying Yorkies. It's very scary what's going on there. I watched the News last night and my heart breaks for everyone involved. Those poor exhusted firefighters and the poor families who are helpless to do anything to help themselves. What devestation. Please be safe. |

| Take care out there! I'm so glad you could take the babies with you to the office. Do you have an evacuation plan?

| We are all fine. Thank you for your prayers for our safety. The fire came to about a mile from my house. I was really concerned about flying embers setting fire to the hills behind my home. By the time I got to work, the wind changed directions. I can see the fire on my way to work - took me an hour longer to get to work on Monday. Now the fire has moved about 10 miles to the south/west of us. I haven't let the girls outside because of the smoke & ash. It's really errie at sunset because of all the smoke from the OC & the Lake Arrowhead fires. Please keep on praying for eveyone's safety - especially for the brave men and women out there fighting the fires. Corinne

I live right where the 261 and Santiago Canyon comes together. The fire actually did jump the 261 but the FD got that out really quick. Thank goodness since right where it jumped the 261, there is a wilderness park on the other side of Jamboree (Peter's Canyon Park). Had that caught on and not contained, it would have gone up Orange Hills and I'm at the bottom of the hill on the opposite side. Remember GiGi that came to the first meet-up with her husband? She lives a block away from where the fire jumped the 261. My Uncle and BIL live in Lake Arrowhead area (Uncle-Cedar Glen; BIL-Running Springs) they are both safely off the mountain, but they don't know if they will have a home to go back to - Please keep up the prayers. Corinne
