# San Diego Wildfire Update

Great news,

Mandatory evacuations for our neighborhood were lifted at 11:30 this morning. We returned home, and everything is here. The fire burned on three sides of our neighborhood, and took out a couple of the homes up on the hill.

Thanks to everyone for being so supportive.
