Just wanted to let everyone know we're doing okay; the closest the fires have gotten is about 5-10 miles from us, and they were contained fairly quickly. The Bastrop fires are about an hour away. On Tuesday, Dawn cleared brush and watered the grass while I worked from home. We have started our "GO kit", locating important papers and putting a duffle bag together. The toughest thing will be three adult Labs, 2 kittehs and 2 chickens, in one Jeep Liberty :) We'll make it work if need be.
In other news, we have two weeks to get the laundry room remodeled before the new washer/dryer shows up. We have settled on a color scheme (pics to be posted) and now it's just a matter of ripping the old walls out and putting new ones up, then painting :)
More to come....
