Got a 150+acre forest fire burnin just a few miles from my house. The wind is down for now but supposed to kick up a little tonight. Wish me luck!

Time to break out the hose

 

Not in Jersey......but seriously be careful bud and dont let your screen name become a reality SmokinPiney...Get it

 

haha good one!

Im headin out to lebanon PA in a few minutes to pick up my buds BD tranny. Anyone wanna come watch the homestead for a few hrs? There's beer in the fridge . Just don't use the beer to put out the fire. That's what the hose is for!

 

Dang man that's kinda close, Is it moving your way? I hope the wind stays down for ya.

I'll watch it for ya along as there is plenty of beer.

 

Dang man....didn't know there were trees left in Jersey.

Soak your roof somethin' fierce and stay alert. Sorry to hear it, man.

 

I always said if I were gonna live near fire areas, I would put an irrigation system up on the property, say a head in every tree, and at leas 6 oin the roof of the house, fires in the area, turn on the system and get everything good and wet, and keep it that way till the fires pass by.

 

hey man i wish you all the luck possible!!.....i work for the Kentucky Division of Forestry as a Wildland Firefighter, so i know first hand how wild those forest fires can get. I hope the best for ya!

 

All is well in Piney town . Just got home and heard from a friend on the forest fire service that they got it contained early this evenin. It could've turned bad real quick if the winds had picked up earlier.

Mr miyagi,

Course there's trees left in jersey! The southern part at least haha. I live smack dab on the edge of a 110,000 acre state forest. We had a few really bad fires round here last yr but luckily we've got one helluva forest fire crew.

 

plus all the smog the fire has no oxygen to use
