Working, theirl hours have been cut down to three or four days per week. Good morning, everyone. There are four things i want to talk with you about this morning. First i will begin with wildfires. Millions of acres are burning. Historically high numbers. That is horrible. But worse than that, at least 35 people have died in the wildfires.
