Just finished watching the news and current affair shows about the Canberra fires.
Bush fires are bad enough but when hundreds of houses in suburbia are cindered that is unbelievable.
I salute the brave firefighters and emergency services as they are doing everything they can. Many have already lost their homes and others don't know if they have a home but they fight on in true Aussie spirit. My condolences go out to the people who lost their homes and family or friends.
It's so easy to get caught up in the daily hustle and bustle of modern life with our petty grievances but when you see big tough men physically and emotionally exhausted and in tears it brings you back to earth very quickly.
My work is around 300K's from the bush fires up in the mountains there is big devastation there as well. The smoke was incredible over my work today and it was hard to work outside without eyes watering or choking.
It's gonna be a long, hot, dry summer...............
