More than 1,000 homes were destroyed this past year as a result of the wildfires in Southern California, with many families left with only what they managed to grab while running to their cars.
Everyone ought to have a fire-resistant safe for his valuable papers and goods. Important documents, photos, wedding albums and momentos can survive a blaze if stored in a good safe.
This is one of the most thorough discussions I've seen on the subject. It focuses on gunsafes, but the information is worthwhile even if you don't own any weapons.
Read and heed, my friends. An ounce -- or a ton-and-a-half -- of prevention is worth a pound of cure.
