Our city is basically on fire right now. We are about 5 or so miles east of where it is burning so are not being evacuated yet. We are east of our major interstate so it would have to get pretty crazy to jump the highway. It got pretty crazy last night though so anything is possible. A lot of people we know have been evacuated and some are even fearful that their homes are burned to the ground. We are praying without ceasing that this thing can get under control and out before too much more is lost. We have lost our beloved Flying W Ranch- a city favorite! Its an old western town where you can go for a tour, a chuckwagon dinner, and a cowboy show. It is so much fun- and I am sad to think we never were able to take the kids to see it. Colby went as a baby with us, but we never made it back there. Please pray for the City of Colorado Springs, for the displaced families, for the firefighters and all the people helping to fight this thing. We have a good chance for some rain today- so pray it comes and it helps! Will keep you posted!
