RED SATURDAY
The Sun turned Red, the sky turned red, our land turned red and then blood flowed….

The sadness I feel for all those who have lost family, friends, neighbors, mates, their houses, crops and the despair they must feel.
The great work that the firefighters, police and emergency services do for us all even when they themselves are loosing the things they love..
We are all Australians and will stand by each and everyone of you in this time of loss.
