Santa Barbara area posters

How are things going there for you?

My daughter voluntarily evacuated last week but had to go back today to take care of some work and personal matters.

I heard the winds shifted and the fire is raging.

I know that this probably affects @hennypenny the most, but if anyone else has the latest news, please share!

My son, DIL and grandson are with friends in Cambria to get a break from the smoke☹️

He said he could see fire this afternoon.

My daughter said she could see flames from her balcony! She's going to LA tomorrow, then I hope she evacuates again. Her pet is here with me, so if she has to go directly from there to my house....no need for her to go back to her apartment.

Just a quick note. under mandatory evacuation for over a week.

Our house was saved. But what a mess. black soot all over everything.

just got home with the cats. and are trying to find clean places to put things.

Thanks for the good thoughts, will post more later or toomorrow.

Try ServePro, I am sure they are inundated but hopefully they can handle the demand

I hope you can get your house back to normal quickly, @hennypenny. The cats must be happy to be back home.

l’m on my way to SB right now for Christmas. My DIL says the air is much better.

Hi @hennypenny I didn't see your post today so I sent you an email. I don't know if you read it yet. Now I see your post, and I'm really glad to hear you're home. The holidays can wait. The most important thing is that you're all okay and the house survived the fire.

Take good care and write when you can. Hugs xoxox

I keep taking breaks, my hands are black.

Would be easier if we were younger.

I never want to see the inside of a hotel or motel ever again.

Sunny, we had hundreds of emails---mr henny went through them first and may have deleted yours.

I am so tired. Might go back and look for it tomorrow.

Missed you and all the folks.

Merry christmas and happy holidays to everyone!

@tansy, We just got home from an early dinner at the Palace grill downtown. The food is marvelous and so is the atmosphere. It is Christmas eve and it was very festive. Not sure what your schedule is while here, but it is a fun stop. --henny

Hi, @hennypenny. The Palace Grill is one of my favorites. Last night we ate in a very small pizza restaurant. The name escapes me at the moment. We went to the *snow fall* event in the shopping area, too. I’m enjoying my grandson so much. I’ll be in tears when we leave:/

Were you able to arrange for help with your home?
