I'm glad you are ok.
As for the loss, it's so hard to comprehend.
Utterly unfathomable.
76 dead and counting, Ash Wednesday's toll was 47. Those arsonists better pray they never get caught
I read about the fires on yahoo and rushed over to see how you were after reading yesterdays post. I am thankful your ok. Everyone is in my heart there are just no words. Mimi
Goodness. It sounds terrifying.
Dear God. That is beyond my ability to comprehend. I cannot even begin to imagine the terror that people must be feeling. Stay safe.
I just saw the news and came to check up on you!
I cannot imagine deliberately setting a fire in those conditions.

Any news from friends in Kilmore and Bendigo?
Nadie, the Bendigonians are okay, haven't been able to raise the Kilmore lot.
Susan I am so glad you are ok. You and your Family have been in my prayers. Stay safe. (((BIG HUGS)))

makes me wish I could do something comforting like take a crochet class, rather than just watching the news over and over - oh, I'm phrasing that all wrong, I hope you get what I mean......
You are in our thoughts and prayers up here. We had similar firestorms, though not as extensive, last year, and are now dealing with the flooding and mudslides that seem to follow. Please keep us updated so we know you and yours are safe!
