Fires In East Texas
 
It seems like so many county's in East Texas are reporting fires. We have been fortunate so far. But, they are almost all around us. Please pray for us.

May the LORD keep HIS HAND of PROTECTION upon all you East Texans, in
Jesus Name. I have a dear older brother and wife in your city. May HE be
merciful unto all!

Hugs,

The wind isn't helping either. We made a quick trip out of town today. Just got home and one of our trees fell and crushed part of our fence. Arrghh!

We can also smell some brush burning somewhere. We have a burn ban, so I don't know where its coming from

Yes, we are all praying!

A couple of my family members have evacuated, it's all around us, too, and the clothes we hung up to dry outside are sure to smell like smoke!

We need rain!

Catastrophic fires burn thousands of acres, force evacuations across Central Texas
Fires in Bastrop County, Spicewood, Steiner Ranch, Pflugerville, others driven by wind and dry conditions.

The largest and most destructive fire was in Bastrop County, where a blaze burned 14,000 acres and grew to an estimated 16 miles long by the end of the day, said Mark Stanford, fire chief of the Texas Forest Service.

Firefighters battled a blaze in a part of the Steiner Ranch subdivision northwest of Austin that destroyed at least 25 homes and forced hundreds to evacuate. RM 620 was closed in both directions near the subdivision for hours.
