I just reported a fire on my four plus acres grass and it was windy and by time I was done it was close to my truck on my paved drive behind my home one of my canines was in the truck with me the other I hoped was inside as I started to call for it very glad as it came running out I left the doors open by time I drove to the front it was spreading fast as a first responder met me moments later and ten minutes later Mn DNR helicopter was in a field across the road from my rural property hooking up a bucket they use then 3-4 reg fire trucks and other trucks with trailers of personal atv's of all sorts and them a semi trailer with a hugebbull dozer oh their was a fire fighting air plane also but they let the helicopter do its job it wasn't needed the pine trees I thought were a goner mine almost Twp acres of and the floor 6inches of dried pine needles in the end it took a few hours only lost a few trees out of hundreds and my outhouse burnt to a crisp and my septic drain field damaged the property is mostly black from the fire and my pets are restricted to there huge fenced in run till the rains of spring wash the property sure would be a mess to have black paw prints everywhere .so thanks to four fire Dept's and all the responders it didn't end so

Glad you had not too much damage and you did not loose the pine trees. Also moving to a rural area with lots of pine trees and fire is the one thing I fear most.

I agree about that being the longest sentence ever, but a good story!

I'm glad there wasn't too much damage and hope the springs rains come soon.

Give the doggs a pat on the head from me, eh?

I am glad that you and your dogs are ok!

I live in Wisconsin and we had fires also. One place in northern Wisconsin had 1000 acres burn off. Been terribly dry in the Midwest consequently, lots of fires.

Your states DNR brought in a firefighting plane for a fire of only 4 acres in size? Send them a huge check in thank you or take the flight crew out to dinner.

Here, they won't even answer their phone for anything less than 300 acres burning.
