South Carolina Wildfire

I am sure by now that most of the country has seen about the wildfire here in Myrtle Beach, SC. It started yesterday afternoon and now has consumed over 8,000 acres. I wanted to take a minute to let everyone know, that my family is all safe, the fires have moved around us. However there are several others that are Local ActiveRain Members from throughout the county that need your prayers and support. It has destroyed several homes in Barefoot Landing which is about 10 minutes north of me. As long as the winds stay calm, hopefully they will be able to get things under control. If the wind were to shift south though, the fire would be heading right towards my house.

Here are two pictures from my development.

So even if you do or do not know any of the members here, take a minute to either stop by their blogs and send them a quick email to check on them all. I will keep everyone updated of any changes.
