We've been having wildfires here for a few weeks now. Our rainfall is way below normal. This morning I got an update from the Division of Forestry. We have 88 wildfires on 43,842 acres around the state. Dozens of families have lost their homes. Please pray for them and for our firefighters. What makes it worse is that some of the fires were arson.
Oh, and by the way -- hurricane season starts June 1.

I pray that you remain out of harm's way. Of course, my prayers are will all there as well.

Getting better: today there are _only_ 67 wildfires on 43,194 acres.
We've not had any fires near us, praise be to God; they are mostly in rural or wilderness areas. But the air quality has been rather poor. When the moon rose last night, it was brown because of all the smoke to the east of us.
