Fires along the Garden Route
8 years 4 days ago
Guys forgive me for posting on the racing forum, but I don't think people realise how (according to the media) how devastating these wild fires have been .As a ex resident of the area,I am devastated to see the damage and have close friends who have lots everything and just managed to escape with their lives. My son and daughter are on their way (from Alaska and JHB) to be with their best fiends from school days.

Our prayers are with all those affected by this tragic event, especially those who have lost loved ones. Material possessions can be replaced/lived without...but one can never replace a loved one. Some very sad stories unfolded here. Right now I'm thinking on the things I take for granted, and the trivial things I stress about...life is too short and unpredictable. Take care folks and love the ones you're with.

My friend has a business in Knysna but luckily it escaped.damage. my brothers inlaws were evacuated from their home. They are.in their late 70s. So scary for them. My friend told me its devastating and sad. The school and church she attended as.a.small girl.is burnt down.
I hear now the wind has turned and Sedgefield residents have been warned. I hope the rain arrives there.soon. it.normally moves up there from.cape town.....so i reckon thwy should get some rain soon. Even the cooler weather will help along with the wind dying down.
Everyone is in my prayers
