Following along with you RE and with all the news. I'm thankful for your safety and protection. I learned yesterday that a friend's mother in Santa Rosa lost everything / leveled by fire, but she herself is safe.
In viewing pictures /news of the California fires, it brought to mind a National Forestry firefighter that I sat beside on a flight in July, who was flying to an assignment to fight the Craig CO fire, after having just fought a different fire in the days before in another state. Now I 'm remembering him and wonder if he is there in California with these current fires. I pray for him also and the other fire crews.
