The fire is out, Homes are burned, about 1300 acres of forest is burned up and charred. however, EVERYONe is safe! no ones lives where taken. Its a miracle. There are lots of pictures on the cbc website which is right here, http://www.cbc.ca/photogallery/canada/2210/ (not a referral) If you are reading this discussion, You should really check out the photo's.. it really was an awesome fire.. not awesome in a good way, but awesome like, a force to be reckoned with.
Are you scared of fire ? I'm scared of uncontained fires!! this one was only 10 mins away from our apartment, there was no way it would reach us..

actually, I feel sorry for the people who suffered any loss because of that fire, but at the same time I must say, those are some beautiful pictures.

Scary, just looking at the picture, it doesn't look safe at all...
What was the reason for fire? I am glad you are safe...

Are there more of these huge fires nowadays than there used to be? From forrest fires, to huge city fires, I feel that we are hearing so much more about them in the past two or three years. I am glad it's out though. There have been some really scary ones in the news lately.

Yes! they are scary and I have watched them try to put them out on tv like in a forest and some of the firemen are truly in danger! And it eats up so much land and trees and goes for the house......I can't imagine losing everything like a fire swallows up everything!

Hey Sissy! I am so glad that the fire is finally out and that
no one was hurt! I am glad that you and your family are all
safe! And yes I am terrified of fire! It is something that
I have nightmares about! I am always afraid that my apartment
will catch on fire and I will have to leave and I won't be
able to save my possessions and be cats! I would die if that
ever happened here! So I am just so happy that you are all
safe now!
