I Stand Corrected

I just wanted to clarify something that I previously wrote - in one of the posts I compiled on the Southern California fires, I put that my brother-in-law's brother had lost his home. It turns out I should have been more optimistic. Although homes on the same street were lost, Brandon's brother's home was not touched by the fire. There is a gully that runs behind the house, and if that had caught fire, then a loss of the home would have probably been inevitable. Fortunately, some very brave neighbors ignored that evacuation notice and stayed behind to fight the fires on their street. Thanks to these real-live heroes, many homes were saved.
