I wasn't going to make a big deal out of this at all, but I'm pretty freaked out right now. I've been back for a week after school ended and I found some time for coding again, so not many of you know/remember me.

Anyway, there is a fire burning very close to my house and I just got evacuated so I'm not disappearing like I usually do one week after coming back, but Its not looking good. The fire is already 6 thousand acres, and is only 5% contained. 5 thousand people have been evacuated.

I don't even really know why I'm posting this, but I just packed everything I could into my car, and we're not allowed back in and I really don't wanna be that guy that comes back then disappears out of nowhere again.

I wish you guys the best of weeks, and I pray for anyone else stuck in the Colorado wildfires.

Well just as an update. The fire is now 100 ft from my house. Looks pretty grim. Thanks for the support though.

The way I read it it didn't reach your house. Is this true?

It stopped about 50 ft. From my house. When I was evacuated, I was nearly sure that my house had burned down, so I was pleasantly surprised to say the least when I came back.
