At quarter past seven
Kim awoke from a
heavy sleep to the sounds of birds squawking in the nearby eucalypt trees. It felt unusually
warm for this time of the morning, as Kim pulled herself out of bed. After soaking under a
five minute shower, Kim dressed for the warm conditions and sat down to breakfast, while
listening to the seven thirty news report.
To her amazement, a fire warning flashed across the news. The bushfire had started at
quarter to six this morning near Stawell and was raging
out of control towards Halls Gap. CFA firefighters had arrived at the fire scene at
ten past six.
Residents were warned to dress in appropriate clothing to withstand a bushfire and to
remain indoors until the fire front passed. Thinking quickly, Kim woke the other members of
her family, changed into a pair of long-sleeved cotton overalls, cotton socks and a pair of
sturdy leather boots. By this time it was quarter past eight.
