wildfires

The news from the past weekend's wildfires in Australia is beyond grim. The devastation wreaked is truly unimaginable. There was a wildfire here in Boulder just a few weeks ago, nothing compared to what has believed to have burned over 900 homes, but enough that it scared me as I watched the dancing flames from my front porch. My heart goes out to the survivors and to those 150 odd people who have been lost.
