Two large fires break out, the Glenrosa fire which has already burned 410 hectors. The second fire is in Rose Vally 150 hectors have already been burned. The thing is, our house is between these two fires and has a large threat of being burned. We are being asked to evacuate in about 1 hour. I'll have some pictures posted soon. Hopefully, all the hard work I've put into my Pumpkins will not be lost.
I'll keep info posted.
-Thanks, -Jordan.

Air is very difficault to breathe now, over 20000 people have been evacuate. We're still able to stay at our home packing some things up. Though it's now a circle of fire around us.

I thought SVB's were bad. At least they do not eat the house. We will pray for you. Think good thoughts. Best of luck and stay safe!

After 2 days of fighting the 550 Hector Glenrosa fire, it looks put out. Fire crews went to fight the 350 Hector Rose Valley fire. But they doubted the force of nature, winds quickly picked up blowing it into a new unburned area, only a orchard stands between our house and the fire.
This keeps getting worse.
I'll have Pics soon.

Glad to see you're still online. I guess this means your home, neighbors & pumpkins are OK? Scary stuff. Stay safe Jordon.
