The fires in the Landes flared up again today after having been contained yesterday—it’s catastrophic! Yes, the drought is severe; everything is scorching. There isn't a blade of green grass left in the fields, and the roadside hedges are burning up, as are the trees and shrubs—even trees like the Cedar of Lebanon. It’s truly sad and dreadful! Firefighters are battling on all fronts, aided by farmers who have large water reserves—using tanks even bigger than fire trucks—to supply them.
I wish you a lovely afternoon and a wonderful evening later on...
Big hugs

I'm glad to know you are not in the way of the fires, Myriam. I hope they stay away from you. This is record breaking fire. I never hear of this kind of event in Europe. Wildfires are more common here in North America, mainly out West. I'm sorry to hear the heat wave is coming back again. I assume there is drought too. I continue to pray for all those in need and who are suffering. God bless you all. *gros bisous*
