It's SOOOOOOO hot, and very scary....

Hi pups,

Just thought I would give you all a quick update - we are in the midst of the hottest day ever today, and we have had some pretty scary bushfires real close to us. Rather than repeat myself, go see Charlie's bloggy for the words, and I will provide some pictures.....

Look how dry it is :(Mum's candles melted :(

We are okay - and managing to stay cool inside.

I sure hope tomorrow is a better day.....

Love

opy
the gruffpuppy who hopes all the animals from the fires are okay :(

Hey Opys,

Can't believe those candles. Hope you, Charlie and your peeps are wearing masks. That smoke can be really bad for you.

We just got some rain but that will not keep us from another year of drought. Certainly not as bad as your drought.

Be careful.

Hi Opy,
I actually came by to check on how you guys are.. We saw on the news about the people losing their homes to the fires. Can't believe your mom's candles melted!!
Hopefully there'd be some rain... and I am crossing my paws for those animals living in the affected areas.
Stay safe (and cool)..

Opy...are brushfires worse than firecrackers??? Frankly, I could do without either. Please stay safe and try to stay cool...it sounds awful there...we're pilin' our snow in front of hooge fans and sendin' ya the cold breeze!!!

Be careful, Kay???

Scruffy, Lacie and Stan

Those candles are impressive!!

Hi Opy, we are glad you are okay. We had been wondering if you lived near all the fires we have been hearing about, and we though, nah... Australia is big, as big as the US of A... what are the chances that you're near the fires. Well, we just checked Charlie's blog and it sounds like you are VERY CLOSE to where all the fires all. How close are you? It sounds like this is happening right in your own community!! Stay safe!!! Be careful out there!!
