Evacuation Plan?
2008-02-17 10:16:00 Sometimes in life we take for granted that everything is going to go fine. When something bad happens, you believe it is always to someone else.

Upon checking it was Sally, our neighbour who told me that there was a fire on the 11th floor. "Prepare to leave!" she said.I got ready, grabbed my important paperwork and called Azwaj, who had to work today. He told me to get ready and he's coming home. The next thing on my mind was our kitties. There are six of them. What do I do if I really to leave the apartment? I can't leave them here, all locked up with no where to go. A thousand and one things went through my mind. Ideas on how to get them to safety in case the fire really spread. OMG! The thought that I might have to leave them behind, unprotected, really scare me. The best thing I can do is just let...

California Fires May Have Caused the Largest Evacuation in State's History,
2007-10-24 18:20:00 Fires raged across Southern California on an epic scale for a third day Tuesday, with flames as high as 100 feet stoked by extremes of wind, heat, dryness and -- on the suburban frontier where some of the worst blazes roared -- the human impulse to live just a little farther out. Brush fires still beyond the control of firefighters forced the largest evacuation in modern times, officials estimated. The orders called for vacating 350,000 homes, affecting 950,000 people. In San Diego County alone, where the largest fire more than tripled in size over 24 hours, evacuation orders went to more than half a million people without reports of major hardships. "It's going very smoothly," said Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger (R), touring the area with federal officials, who dispatched military cargo planes and helicopters to bolster the fleet dropping fire retardant on the blazes. President Bush, who was sharply criticized for his sluggish response to Hurricane Katrina in 2005, declared a fe...

I almost got out of line.I filled the car with gas, got some money, planed my escape route. Now I have to take with me two kids, a cat, a dog, extra gas, important papers, and....What would you bring if you had to evacuate and you only had a little bit of room left in your tiny little car?
