Fire in Driftwood...

Specifically right next freaking door to our subdivision...







Scarey, scarey, scarey...This is from our picture window...


Betsy took this out her front door...




Jason Marko dropped the kiddos off here and went to help fight the fire! Geromi left work and "flew" home to help with the efforts too. Great job men!




Life flight...they circled for a bit and then landed on Jas and Betsys front lawn of the rental. They are renting a ranch house while they build and it is on the immediate left of our subdivision. The fire started across the road and eventually jumped it a bit further down.


Our ground zero. Look at all the efforts to put out the fire. They were awesome! It took Austin, Dripping Springs, San Marcos, Wimberley and all the volunteer crews to get this monster out.






It was so bad we packed our bags. :(

That's the most frightening thing. We went through similar a couple years ago with a grass fire. I'm glad you are OK.
