We experienced our second grass fire in the past five years.
It was started by a paving company and burned the hill behind us, and
then traveled, against the wind, behind our neighbor's house.
Chip finally persuaded the fire department to put some water on it
before it got to our place.
We
dragged around water hoses to wet the area around our neighbor's
house--the fire department wanted to just let it burn.
Chip
finally convinced the fire department to put some water on it and they
let him handle a hose for old time's sake.
Chip put on his shirt to get their
attention...and was proud of his singed hair. This website is for the personal
