The fierce winds let to power outages, felled trees and limbs. Our neighbor's garage had a tree fall on it. School was cancelled due to the extensive power outage. Then there were also fires. The fires were huge but we didn't know how bad they were at first. We went to check on our neighbors and a lady in our ward who lives a street over. We drove to get gas and fill up gas cans for our generator in case we still didn't have power that night. We had to drive to Auburn because the nearby gas stations were out of power. We got gas and headed back to help our neighbors clean up the mess.
Then we went over to the Hanes to see how they were doing and hang out for awhile. We learned more about the fires and the fact that we were so close to the evacuation zone. We packed up our suitcases and decided to stay the night with the Hanes. Jase, Ev, Avi and I slept in the playroom. Max and Ryan slept in the loft. The kids loved having a sleep over.
