                                         Recent Adventures - May 09

                                   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.
