THE BIG FIRE

Boy did we have our excitement when lightening stuck the power lines

across the street and started fires both northwest and southwest of us.

Jane claims that it was her birthday candles from heaven.

Actually there were 3 fires one also above the church house.

When it was at the worst prays were answered

and we had about 10 minutes of torrential rain

The command post was in our front yard and the

helicopter refueled in the field next to us in front of the mink sheds

This is the morning after looking south.

It burned over to the cemetary.

Nina drove past the power pole right as it struck.

The lightening shook the whole house.

We knew we were hit.

Thanks you to all the good neighbors and fire department and God it was controlled quickly
