Will definately keep praying for some calmer winds and rain.

Looks like the gale force wind gust are subsiding today. Just a little breezy. Some firefighters lost their lives in transit to Arizona from Colorado. When need to ask for protection for all involved in fighting these fires and for residents in the area and for the families who lost these loved ones. Thanks!
