More on the wildfires...

Smoke, not clouds
It got extremely worse on the 26th. Goodbye Flying W Ranch. I'm praying for the people who lost the 340+ homes, and the family of the person they found in the ruins of one of those homes. I thought we were doing so well with 0 injuries/fatalities :( Sad indeed.

God Bless the Firefighters who are working so hard
Ash was coming down all over town!


Some of the good new though - fire is at 15% containment and the 18,500 acres is down to 16,500. They got 10% containment in 1 day! Fight on! I hope & pray it doesn't reach Woodland Park.

Wildfires...


It's so scary having such a major fire so close to home. 24 hour news coverage. Everywhere smells like smoke, and everyday I wake up to news of yet another fire. I pray that there's some shift in the weather(instead of 100 degree heat with endless blue skies and giant plumes of smoke, that it might rain). I also pray for all the firefighters out there working so hard and the families displaced, all the volunteers and pilots that this will be contained and put out and most of all, that no one gets hurt.
