Wildfire

I was in Old Colorado City (original Colorado Springs downtown) yesterday (photo class, farmer's market, a little clothes shopping) and on my way out, I topped a hill and saw this. Of course, I took a few photos.

Text is from the news yesterday: For the west side of Colorado Springs and into the Ute Pass area, wildfire danger became a sudden reality Saturday afternoon when the Waldo Canyon fire flared up around noon.

The threatened area is quite a bit north of my placebut our church is in the mandatory evacuation zoneconcernedpraying for safety for the fire fighters and for those residents who evacuated or still need to evacuate.

Fire is still ragingfrom today's news: The 2,500-acre Waldo canyon fire has been burning all night, giving an orange glow to the city's west side as trees torched like fireworks.

Marnie, I can't believe the scope of this fire! I have some friends that own a retreat center in Divide and a house in Colorado Springs, and they are watching the fire very anxiously too. It's just so massive and relentless. Praying for safety for all in the path of this firestorm, and for a quick resolution to the problem. Blessings, Tracy

Wow, Marnie, this is incredible and scary.
Please stay safe!!
Great pictures!
 
Marnie, living in So. California, I am always afraid when I hear there is a fire. We have had two years where we were concerned about our home, and 100's lost theirs. I feel for the people in Colorado in it's path - how quickly life can change. I hope they get control of it pretty soon. Love the layout.
 
Fire is always so scary!! Amazing photos and hope they get it out!! Stay safe!! Great page!!
