Devastation

Bushfires are ravaging our state. It is now Australia's worst ever natural disaster with 750 homes lost and already over 100 lives lost and many more are missing in communities that the services have not been able to reach yet.

We unfortunately lost 50 houses in our town and one life. It is now thought that the fire was started by a lit cigarette thrown from a passing car.

As we plan to move into our new home, my heart sinks for all those who have lost their own homes and for some much much more.
