Fire!

We had a fire not far from Norm and Sandys place by the Black River. The smoke got very heavy and you cloud see the flames from their front yard. One house was told to get their animals and belongings they wanted out because for a while there, they didn't know if they would be safe. Everyone pitched in and helped load their birds and animals and get them to safety. It took a lot of effort by a lot of people to gain control of that fire in high gusting winds and we are very thankful. An ember got in a ceder tree in Norms driveway. Beth noticed it and Sandy put it out. It being so dry it could have started that tree on fire and made things worse. Norm was a little over 500 ft. from the fire and that burning ember made it to his place. That is why you should never burn anything when the wind is up. A bad situation ended well. No loss of property or animals that I know of. Hurrah!!
