So my dad calls me last night to tell me
"he is sorry for bothering me" and the proceedes to tell me about the fire they had (my parents live in Rural southeastern Arizona) that burned 5 acres of our property.

this included part of our orchard, our garden, and our well, our pressure tank, and our holding tank. So they have no water, they lost their garden which provides them with a lot of their food, and several fruit trees, that are about 6 years old and have just started really producing fruit.

Apparently two electric lines were too close together and a really heavy 35+ mile an hour wind blew the lines together and they sparked and started a fire.

Since they had no water (and live 30 miles from the nearest firetruck) it took forever to put out.

My poor parents. And I wasnt there to help.

Everyone who thirsts, come to the waters; and you who have no money
come, buy and eat. Come, buy wine and milk without money and
without cost.-Isaiah 55:1
