We are okay, we have wildfires all around us but so far we are okay. There is a large fire to the east, one to the west, one to the north, and a new one to the northeast. We are staying close to home.
There is one fire that is near Norman that has destroyed several homes and has flared back up. I tried to call Davie but didn't get an answer.
The fire at Luther, OK that destroyed 56 homes and other structures, is still burning too, they said this evening that it is 80% contained but some of it as flared back up too. My sister lives within 1/2 mile of those fires and if the wind doesn't shift, they will be okay.
There is a fire north of us that has closed one highway, one east of us that has closed another highway and one west that has also closed a highway. The one northeast of us that just started is nowhere near under control yet.
Once again we had another day with the temperature well over 100 degrees and it is so dry that the grass is crunchy and brown. We really need rain desperately.
Please, if you live anywhere near these fires, please let us know you are okay.
