Dedicating "Ring of Fire" to all those who are battling the Fires this Fire Season of 2020. Thank you with all my heart!

This tune has been played at many Fire Academy's that I have attended over the years and has become a symbolic tune for Fire Fighters. Watching new graduates from the fire academy with so much hope and excitement for a career as an upcoming Fire Fighter always makes me teary eyed. I know that they are excited to serve their communities and help others above themselves.

Bringing this tune, "Ring of Fire" to the Bagpipes brought me so much joy during a time where worry and stress were heavy on my heart. My husband was out on the line battling our towns #AppleFire and I was so proud of the hard work in the terrible Southern Californian heat. The long days and long nights that our Firefighters give is amazing. Watching the huge plume of smoke rising above our heads here in Yucaipa was something else. Something I will never forget as I watched it from my home. As a Fire wife I feel so much gratitude, love and respect as they walk the line to protect our communities.

Thank you Fire Fighters and Air Support for working hard to protect our homes those we love. Sending you all a prayer of safety and a tune of encouragement!!
