I had to be less than 4 years old... My Mom came into our bedroom in the middle of the night and drug my sister and I out the front door. My Dad was standing in the front yard in just his boxers spraying water on the roof with a hose. A tree had fallen on some power lines and started a fire. I remember standing there in my footsy pajamas on the wet grass and my grandma coming to pick us up in her yellow VW.

Around the same time period, my sister and I were in the back seat of the same VW ready to go to church. My grandma had to run back into the house for something and didn't set the parking break. We were in the middle of the street when she came back out. She freaked out. We just laughed.
