Re: i cant beleive this!!!

Nothing on the news out this way. I'll switch to an Edmonton channel and watch.

Thoughts and prayers are going out to everyone directly or indirectly affected with the devastation.

Global news Edmonton has quite a bit of coverage. Saying 40% of the town is either burnt down or damaged as of early monday

Re: i cant beleive this!!!

Sounds like help is coming from all over now, a couple days too late. The videos from Sat. that I saw on youtube showed how bad it was already on Saturday.

I recommend "MUTE" but it shows the fire basically in town Saturday :eek:

I watched it as well!! Can't believe that things pretty much have to be destroyed before more help is dispatched!! My sister in laws family has lost mostly everything!! I think they will be headed up here to stay with her for a while!!

So sorry to everyone. Just hope everyone's ok!

Re: Fire burnin

I think our house is gone along with preety much all we owned dam it

Ryan my friend, anything you need, please post on here, you know that we have a very tight knit community here on Snowandmud, and we're all here to do what we can for you.

For everyone else up there, I personally wish to extend my thoughts to each and every one of you. This is really scary, I've spent lots of time in your little town, and hopefully this is all under control soon.

Tyler Geddes.

Get out with your lives. People will help you rebuild, but we can't rebuild your life. 1 bag of donation clothes ready to go in my house, with a couple more to come.
