Holy cow Jiffymouse! That must have been so scary! Fire terrifies me. I'm glad that Matthew was able to put the fire out quickly.

Actually, Jiffy that fire will probably help the natural habitat. Burning off the brush periodically rejuvenates the forest and increases wildlife.

Glad you are all o.k. That was a close one.
Wierd, when I seen the topic I thought of Cindy right away as well, until I seen Jiffymouse.
Thorny is right, that ground will flourish now.

Well, Jiff, looks like your "buring-off" was done for you! In late February or early March we always burn off the dead stuff from winter to try and keep the fire threat down. Are those pine trees I'm seeing? We are surrounded by pine orchards as we live in a papermill town that grows and uses pine as a major source, as well as having several around the property. Dead pine staw is like a newspaper on fire! I'm so glad it did not do more damage. God bless you and your family.
