Bush Fires in Victoria

Sad news from Victoria today where bush fires threaten the Chalet atop Mt. Buffalo. According to fire crews, it's a matter of when, not if, the fires will reach the chalet. A resort farther down the mountain has been completely destroyed. The chalet was the site of a conference Aussie and I attended several years ago. It's a grand old place with huge fireplaces in every public room, a lovely dining room, and those old-fashioned rooms like you see in old movies with antique furniture and footed tubs and lace curtains. What a loss!
