Our area in California was evacuated on Sunday night because of the wildfires. We got back home on Thursday. We were out of town so we never had a chance to grab any valuables and all we had was my wife's car and a change of clothes. We had always had a plan on what to grab if we were ever evacuated but when you are not home you don't get that chance. Now that we are back home we were very lucky and had no damage. I have spoken to people in the area who had "fire proof" gun safes that had nothing but rusty barrels left and a little charcoal. Anyone have experience with fire safes that actually worked? I know they have ratings but what does it really take if your house burns to the ground?
You can imagine the things we were thinking about as we waited to return home. The only thing we lost was some food items and I had to run generators for over a day to get things back in order and have water. We now have phones and power so we area almost back to normal.
Not going to talk about what I currently have but it isn't cheap and it has a good fire rating I just don't know if it would have survived.
