OT! Wild Fires...

18 years ago

The county next to us is on Fire.. My property line is the County Line.. It is nothing but pasture out here..We have a Volunteer Fire Dept.We went thru this last yr.. less than a mile from us everyone lost everything.. Thank God .. NO lives were lost.. The 50mph wind has just started to shift this way....We are fine so far.. But I know there are alot of people out there who are losing everything they've got.. I hope you will keep them in your prayers...

Thanks!!!

    just wondering how u r doing? me and my daughter are hoping you are ok. let us know if we can do anything to help.

    I did a search for wild fires outside of Dallas. Wow you are really having a lot of wind. 60 mph gust on a dry area is scary. I did the volunteer FF for 12 years down here. Fire just jumps from top to top. I hope all is Ok up there. Let us hear something.....

    Kylie - you and your family stay safe. Prayers and wishes going to all of you.

    Remember - things are just "things." If you're told to evacuate - please don't risk your life. Grab your smoochey doggies and critters and run.

    Gosh we're all praying for you. How scarey.

    Be well.

    Hope you and your family and pets all stay safe. Wierd to have wildfires in winter...here they are all in the summer/fall. My aunt's cabin in N. AZ got burnt up a few yrs ago...it must be dry there too.

    stay safe, hope it gets contained...

    I went to Star Telegram newspaper in our area of North Texas. They had oh so many photos of the firefighters at various fires. One I was especially interested in I have added here.

    I see the outline of the State of Texas in those flames from a burning fence post.

    I hope all is well with you and yours, Kylie.

    Kylie: You have been in my thoughts and prayers. As someone who has been touched by these fires, I am in complete sympathy with you. Sending a ton of positive vibes your way. My heart goes out to those who have not been so lucky. Blessings, Gloria

    Thanks for all of your prayers and well wishes... The wind finally laid down a little after dark.. they got the fires out..There were 3~4 other counties that were a blaze also... It is windy again today but not to bad.. I haven't heard of anymore fires today...We just need rain desperately.. LOL nothing but wind in the forecast...

  • 18 years ago

    Thank goodness you are ok. I know we had so much rain all spring and summer and the places here that usually look like desert were so green then no rain for the last several months and all that grass has died and dried out and is a fire waiting to happen with the high wind all it takes is a hot car exhaust pulled over on the shoulder or a lit cigarette tossed out a window to start it.

    That is us... some of the fires yesterday were started when power lines were blown down... Crazy!!!
    So how is your Mom and Uncle anyway???? Doing Great I hope!!!!

  • 18 years ago

    They are doing very well. Mom is off most of her medication and blood pressure is doing well. My uncle is still in the hospital but recovering very well. Glad you are ok. I'll be back on tonight.

  • 18 years ago

    That's great news Kylie! Made DH put the remote down last night when I saw a story about the fires was coming up on the weather channel. Very glad to hear they were able to put them out.

  • 18 years ago

    Glad all is well. Wind and fire is real scary.

  • 18 years ago

    Kylie: So glad all is OK. Still thinking on ya. Stay safe. Gloria
