One minute I’m hanging washing on the line,
then I hear sirens and smell smoke.
The next I’m online seeing this
Where did this start and how could this happen so fast?
For the next five hours all I heard and saw were these
water bombers flying overhead refueling or getting water wherever they could.
A couple of photos from the main road
looking towards the railway line.
Replacement buses scheduled now till the line can be replaced.
The fire jumped the main road in a few places.
Residents were very lucky, no homes were lost.
More photos can be seen here and
well done to all the crews helping to extinguish this fire.
Thank you to all those who were concerned about us.
Thank you for visiting
