What’s going on in my neck of the woods.

Some of you know I live in a rural area. We all saw the devastation of the California fires recently. We now have two forest fires burning uncontrollably in our area. We were under a burn ban and recently it just got lifted. So far, the fire hasn’t burned any homes but as of 3 p.m. today it’s at 1,300 acres and 0% contained. I know on Facebook the coverage is massive since it’s our area. Is it on national television, I have no idea because I don’t watch television. Started Wednesday night and now it’s Friday night and it’s just getting worse. It’s a tragedy, it’s burning our state forests. It’s in Cumberland County Pennsylvania. They suspect a hiker started it but they are not saying if they believe it was accidental or intentional. There have been some evacuations, but no home affected yet, they’ve been able to hold it back so far. We are 30 miles away so while it’s not right here our whole community is coming together donating water, food, Gatorade and offering space for livestock on other farms as we are a farming community.
