The Santa Barbara tea fire destroyed over 230 homes, and our house was right in the middle of it. Miraculously our structure was not affected and we got away with smoke damages. We moved out our home, and moved 5 more times in three weeks, finally settling into a hotel for one month. We did not move our belongings back, because we like our home stripped and empty. All those books, that we loved before....I don't even miss them... we are lucky
