The fires in California are pretty insane right now. Two major fires in my area are only about 50 and 67% contained as of the last update from Cal Fire. The communities that are being impacted by these fast moving fires are both very rural and very horsey. I’ve been very proud to see lots of my friends jumping in to help, either by taking in horses who’s owners needed to evacuate them or by volunteering at the animal shelters. There isn’t anything quite like the way the horse community bands together in times of need.
