Just so it is in perspective, while some of us haven't seen the fires in Texas due to location, fires have consumed more land then the size of Connecticut. CT will fit in Texas approximately 48.5 times. My numbers may be off but I'm trying to put things in perspective for those hearing about it on the news. These numbers are based off of numbers on Answers.com (size of CT, number of times it will fit, and 1 millions acres in miles).
We have been extremely lucky with the injuries vs acres affected. May the Supreme Grand Architect be with all the families, farmers and ranchers affected by this.
