Wild Fires

A wildfire started yesterday afternoon in the mountains just west of Colorado Springs and very quickly spread because of the extremely dry conditions that we are experiencing. The wind fueled the fire and it quickly grew overnight, and has been worse today. Approximately 11,000 people have had to evacuate. I prepared items this morning, so that we are ready if we get the call to leave.
Please pray for God's protection over our city. Pray for rain. We desperately need it!
(First two pictures were taken yesterday - the rest were taken today. You can see how the fire has spread. These pictures were taken from our house)
