Family closeness, community generosity lead Colorado City couple out of the ashes
The family was given 30 seconds to abandon their home — a house Chip's grandparents had bought, and in which generations of family heirlooms were kept. Kim ran into the bedroom and grabbed a suitcase, intending to grab some clothes and things for the night or two they might have to spend away from the house. "But Chip ran in — he'd seen the flames outside — and he said we had to go right then," Kim said. Chip grabbed Mickey, their 14-year-old black lab, piled everyone into the truck, and the family fled into the smoky night. COLORADO CITY —Chip and Kim Northcutt one year ago were watching TV after dinner on a Sunday night when a Mitchell County Sheriff's Department deputy nearly broke down their front door. A shift in the winds was pushing a wildfire that had started north of town directly toward their home on North Highway 208, just outside the city limits. They went to stay with family in nearby Loraine, and awaited word about the fate of their house.
