COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – Jaenette Coyne estimates she had five minutes to leave home after calling 911 to report forest fire smoke behind her home.
There was no time to grab wedding albums, fingerprint artwork by her 20-month-old daughter, quilts her grandmother made, her family's three cats.
"We left with nothing," she said.
She and her husband later watched on television this week as flames engulfed their house.
"I don't know how to tell you in words what it felt like," she said. "It's the worst thing I've ever felt in my whole life."
