    We survived yet another horrible fire that started in Ramona! Our house is fine, our family is fine, and we want to thank everyone who has called and emailed to check up on us. However, we are extremely heartbroken that one of our race buggy drivers for the big Baja 1000 race coming up on Nov. 12 has lost his home. Dan insists that he still wants to be part of the race inspite of his tragedy. This race means even more to all of us than ever before now. We are going to make it to the finish line for the Vista High Auto Shop Students, and for our friends, Dan and Julia, who lost everything they owned in the big fire this week. The photo gallery has photos of our Witch Creek Fire adventures this week.
