Keep safe Helene.
Prayers sent from downunder for rain, lots of it.

[Queen of Poop]

Prayers for everyone that they stay safe and out of harms way.

Prayers that the rain/snow that we are expecting later today/tomorrow can take a detour and go way south to help you guys out.

Yes & as of Tues evening we got Snowed On With Thick Layer of Ash Flakes.. I have never seen that before.. Yes by yesterday I was Scared & Saying Alot of Prayers.. See there is a Bigg River that was dividing us from the fires && the fires had made it across the river.. The FireFighters on the Ground have steered the fires back out into the open lands away from the towns now.. Yes Red Cross & diff homes here are opened up for the people.. And like I said I have Funds Set Up for the Animals in my Vet Clinic for their stays until the parents can come for them.. All the Prayers must be working due to We Have Mostiture in the Air Now.. It is Drizzling.. The Fires are 25% contained now.. I also just heard last night that another FireFighter has died.. All So So Sad.. Many Thanks For All Of The Prayers & Lighted Candles..

Helene, how is the weather in Texas? Are you getting rain yet? I cross a bridge over the DesPlaines River on my way to work every day-- the river is very high; wish I could somehow siphon that water down to Texas.

[lvpets2002]

Yes we did & thank you for asking.. We got about 3 in of rain 2 weekends ago && that helped so much of putting the fires on out.. We are all ok here now.. We are about to get more rain & storms this afternoon.. ** Now the people in MS & LA are getting flooded from the MS River overflowing.. That is just horrible out east.. Many Prayers goes out to them now for sure..

This Texas weather has been CRAZY this year !!! Actually, it has been pretty bizarre everywhere. Just got off the phone talking to my insurance agent for the hail damage from April 14th. The hail completly covered the ground and was about 2 inches deep - Yikes !!! That all blew through right after the horrific fires......
