Just wanted to put a quick note out there if any one was checking. This is a picture of one of the three very large fires burning in our area. We are located in the small triangle just below the 56 freeway on the east of I-5 (lower left corner). As of yet our area is only voluntary evacuation. We are packed and ready to go, but hanging out at home. We don't expect to have to evacuate. We are situated in between the two largest fires. I think if we do have to evacuate it will only be if the worst should happen and the two fires meet. I'm helping out at my hospital during the day and Ian's camped out at home keeping tabs on things. Right now we are safe and comfy. Of course we will let family know if anything changes. Pray for better weather!

Praying....
Thanks for the posting. I have been wandering if I should call you and see where you are. We are praying for you. The doors are open here if you need to come east to get away from the fires.
We had some wildfires burn pretty close to home when we lived in Fairbanks. Lots of smoke and ash.
I hear that some of our (Idaho's) wildland firefighters are getting ready to head down to help. I am sorry that I am not one of them. Really, I want out of school and would rather fight a fire than take my exams. I hope that you stay safe. Good luck.
I just emailed Jess and thought, "duh I can email Meg AND check her blog..." so thanks for keeping us updated on your situation:) We are praying for you, too. You always can live here with us if you need to!!
We're all thinking of you and praying for better weather. I'm so relieved that you haven't had to evacuate!
I am!
Why don't you evacuate for fun and come and see us?
Hope you and yours stayed safe!
