Please pray for all those that are being effected by some serious wild fires right now. I know Leon and Bastrop county and I am sure many others right now. These high winds and dry conditions are a worst case scenario, and they are sparking up all over.

Matt I haven't heard the details but they had a pretty good fire going out west of Linden. These are some bad conditions we are under. No rain in the forcast. We are atleast looking at some cooler temps.

Yeah I just talked to Kerry and he said that the fire got to within a half mile of their house but the north wind kept it just south of him.
Please pray for Derrick on here and the Logans, they are all evacuated and I know Derrick's kinfolks lost their barns/equipment already and likely a good deal of livestock.

He didn't say Timmy, I know there is a big fire between Robbins and Flynn right now too and a huge one near Columbus.
