We'll just hang tight at my Aunt's house until the last little ember goes away.

VERY reminiscent of the last time - they spent 9 days in Barstow that October. Mom's ready to move back to Las Vegas. I hate this stuff... Wonderful people, beautiful homes and a beautiful area - threatened much too often.

Lake Gregory / Crestline is the focal point for my parents and the ElderPs. My parents live in the area above the lake - off Lake Gregory Drive.
