As a grandma, I want to have things on hand for my little granddaughters (now 3 and 7). They are not quite into computers yet but I know the day is coming. In the meantime, I have told a couple of young moms about Surfing the Net with Kids. The reason for my comment this morning is that I am a technical writer in Escondido (we are not too far from the Wild Animal Park), and I had no idea you were a neighbor of sorts. The Paradise fire got close enough for us to watch it on the ridge, and we could see smoke from the Cedar fire that probably looked closer than it was. Given the speed at which it had traveled Sunday morning, however, we felt we had to be concerned about both fires. I was very close to packing the cars when the winds turned. From what you are saying, it sounds like they headed your way. I am so glad we are all finally out of harm's way, and so sorry for the lives lost and the thousands of displaced families.
