October 21, 2008
The big boys had a cookout down in the wooded area of our place. At about 4 am they woke up to see the wooded area in flames.
So we all had to get up with me, the kids, and animals in the cars as the 5 fire trucks worked on putting the fire out.
It was beautiful but burned several trees, most of their things and a lot of pine needles. They had put their cook fire out and used several buckets of water so no one knows what happened for the fire to get away.
The fire burned on and off for several hours. There were some dead trees and the fire got inside them and finally the firemen came back and cut them down.
We still have a lot of trees it looks like the fire cleaned the dead stuff out.

I tried to get a photo of the fire but my cheep camera kept saying "to dark" but I found one on the net that it looked like.
