Fire season

It’s that time of the year again. This fire was only three acres and they knocked it out fast, but the wind and smoke did not make it any easier on them. Plus, the nearest hydrant was blocks away.

I was able to get up close and right in on the action, unlike the t.v. guys who came up here for a larger fire earlier this month. One of the firefighters scolded me for moving into an unburned area before the whole thing was under control. He was right, I should not have been in there, but it made for a better picture (see first shot below).
