For those who have not heard Texas is having major grass/brush fires all over the state. Every major city as well as surrounding areas are facing extreme fire conditions.I am asking all of dive buddy friends to please say a prayer for all the Firefighters,Police,and Medics who are working these fires. Also let’s not forget the poor souls who have lost their homes.

Travis P.

I’m a long ways away, but have been seeing it on the news. My thoughts to you folks and all the people involved in fighting the fires. Sending vibes of cool air and rain your way.

Good thought, Travis. I live in north Houston. Sunday was the day of the big fire up in Montgomery County. I could smell and see the smoke from where we live. Close to sunset the smoke was so thick that the setting sun was blood red....... a very stange and surreal sight. The local media has been airing stories of lots of everyday folks coming out to support the First Responders and the victims with food, water and a place to rest - it all gives a little hope for humanity!
