Thanks!

The flames passed through their neighborhood. They still can’t get home, but they have heard there is smoke damage, whatever that means. Two other family members are poised for evacuation but haven’t had to leave.

Our place burned all the roof and 1/3 of the way down the upper floor. Tons of smoke and water damage. Hopefully they have good insurance although I suspect any restoration services will be pretty busy. Baking soda on cookie sheets works well for smoke but they still had to repaint. Basically rebuilt a 2 year old home. The firefighters were great they saved all our artwork and did things like open drawers and sweep jewelry, etc on top down into the drawers.
