Texas is BURNING

Over 1,000,000 acres burned so far in west Texas
ONE MILLION ACRES!

The fires are still a few hours west of us but we are getting the smoke and dust stirred up from them here at our little house.  You can read up on them here. There are also fires to our south in Austin that claimed 10 homes.  I can't imagine losing everything like that!

Our thoughts and prayers are with those in the paths of the fires and those brave men and women risking their lives to fight them!

The flags at my local firehouse are at half staff now for fire fighters that have fallen battling the Texas blaze.
