We lost power this morning (lots of the power lines run through the area that is on fire). But it might be something else as there was a giant popping noise.
We're dogsitting K's friend's dog who lives up there.
And two of the school districts up there are closed today even though today was supposed to be opening day.
Ah. Thanks, Kat. What a scary thing.
