Oz on fire

Australia has endured probably its worst peacetime disaster in its history, and the death toll from it is still climbing.  Bushfires continue to decimate its once-pristine forest lands as well as destroying homes and properties and livestock.

There is a reason I didn’t go to Oz even if I wanted to and even if they wanted me to.

It’s simply devastating, and these pictures show why I consider it fate made me stay here.
