the firefighters fighting the black forest fire have shift changes at 8am & 8pm... people have been gathering near the high school where they are staying to welcome them back and give them their "thank yous!" for all of their hard work. millie & i made a sign this afternoon, so that we could go thank them for making sure we never needed to evacuate... we are so grateful! it was so powerful to hear everyone's cheers & see their big smiles. as of tonight the fire has burned more than 14,000 acres, burned down over 500 homes, and is now 75% contained.
