The Santa Ana winds are back and almost immediately it has started really bad wild fires. It's not good. There's even a fire fairly close to where I live. I don't think it will get to my neighborhood, but it's still bad. So many acres are being burned right now. It's not only here either, but all around Southern California. There are some in the LA area and even San Diego too. The Santa Ana winds always cause a lot of damage each year. The back of our fence was blown over and damaged. It can't be repaired. Of course we really need a new back part to our fence because it's weak. We can't let Luke out again without watching him. We must be getting 60mph gusts or something. There is smoke in the air. Only the Governator can save us now. Here's a link to an article on the fires

I actually had a dream because of this. A fire or some natural disaster was coming towards our house and we had limited time to grab our belongings. I started grabbing as many of my books as I could, but I was worried I wasn't going to make it and I was crying. That's probably what I would grab in the event of a real disaster. Well that and my pets and laptop. Let's just hope I don't have to ever worry about evacuation. Knock on wood.
