And it is **Filtered** windy, windiest it's been since Spring.

I have photos, will upload them at lunch. It's pretty bad. Thousand homes plus evacuated

I hope you stay safe.

hope you'll be ok Jack

Damn Jackie boy be careful bro

Photo ain't that great.

For context the fire is about 20 and in a heavily populated area. It's only one of the five can fires.

I hope you get burned alive Jack, and then I may have Deni all to myself.

Mmm..Deni.

what do u mean 20 and can fires?

I'm safe, down wind from the fires.

I mean2 I meant it's a long ways away. You can see it from here, lighting up the night sky.

I am so sad now. Died inside.

There are five fires in Bastrop, several more surrounding bastrop and still more state wide.

The National Guard has been dispatched to Bastrop along with 30 different agencies to help fight the fires.

Several homes have burned down and several hundred have been evacuated.

Last I heard the fires are still not contained. 0% containment is what I've been told.

The photo I took is of a fire several miles from here. It dies down and glares back up.

Earlier reports have said that winds are reaching 30 MPH.


That's what I know. I think things are being blown out of proportion. The fires are bad, but I don't think they're that bad. Earlier reports were a thousand homes had been evacuated. Now all I see is 300. 14,000 have burned. But that's **Filtered** all in Texas. We have ranches bigger than that. The good news is they have been preparing for a big fire. The bad news is that we've been in a severe drought all summer long and bastrop and the areas surrounding out are woodlands.

Oh and all the hotels are fully booked, atleast one manager has to work a triple because of it.

14000 homes lost I hope all had insurance

I meant 14,000 acres. XD

Update. 400 homes have been reported destroyed, the fire spans 16,000 acres is about 16 miles long.
