Please pray. There

Chatterbox: Down to Earth

Please pray. There

Please pray. There is a forest fire near our home, and we are on prevacuation. I'm really worried.

Oh, I'm so sorry to hear this, Brooklyn Newsie! Yes, we'll keep you, your family, and everyone in the path in our thoughts and prayers that the fire will be put out soon or at least turn away from people and their homes. Which state? I heard about Colorado this morning, but I know there are several other fires, too. Please keep us posted.

Oh, dear. I wish you and your community the best of luck. Don't worry too much, the most important thing is that you stay alive and safe.

That sounds terrible! I really hope you and everyone else who lives nearby will be alright, that the fire will be put out. If you get scared, think of all these people on this thread who care about you.

I'm so sorry! I hope you are all ok! I know how terrible fires can be. I'm not very religious, but I'll keep you in my thoughts and pray for you anyways!

*mind explodes* THAT WOULD BE SO COOL! Do u dance? OMAGOSH THIS IS CRAZY. IT'S LIKE A ONE IN A MILLION CHANCE THAT SOMEONE ON THIS LIVES RIGHT BY ME. *rest of mind explodes* 

And side note, I always thought you were a lot older then me. XD

As for everyone else, the fire has gone down considerably, and is now travling up the mountain. It did rain, so that helped a lot. Breck is not under pre-evacuation anymore, and I'm pretty sure its safe for Peak 7 to return. The fire will probably burn itself out by the end of tomorrow.  

 

Thank you for the update on the fire, Claaws. We're grateful to hear that the worst seems to be over for your area.
