My sister Ann and her family fled the northern California fires at 1am Sunday, barley escaping the furious burning with their lives.   To say it has been a tramatic experience, would be a sever understatement.  The good news is that they are safe, the community is pulling together in positive ways.   While they are working through the process of shock and grief, they are also starting the long road to recovery.  They have found short term housing and are working to get the essentials they need to survive the next several weeks until they can get together a longer term plan.  Which depends heavily on the fires coming under control.  

I have opened this gofundme to support them with interim expenses.  They have found a short term place to stay as they regroup and begin the process of rebuilding with their entire community.   If you are able to and interested in supporting them, I have provided this opportunity.  The key needs right now are getting enough to establish a base home (pots/pans/bedding/ etc.)  and clothes till insurance is able to get things moving.
