"FIRE"

Guess life just keeps on coming. Whether or not your ready it just keeps on coming. We had our first "Adrenalin" rush. Dale and I were getting ready to go to Nashville to watch Joshua. I looked outside because it was looking "hazy". Then I asked Dale if he was burning brush and forgot about it.....No, not just NO but heck No. We went outside and I told Dale I was going to call the Fire Department. First he said no, and went out to "beat" the fire out. I could see that was not going to work at all. And it was about 50ft. from our house. So I took matters into my own hands and called. Then I ran in and got the fire extinguisher. Didn't help much either. Then I pulled out the hose and started watering. In the meantime I had called the Fire Dept. and (I forget we are now in the country) they asked me how to get to our house; and what county we lived in. I told them, "how am I supposed to know, I just moved here in May; I thought that you guys knew how to get here". I then told them to call my in-laws and they would tell them how to. It took about 10minutes for them to get here. But I sure was glad to see them. After the fire was out they invited us to the "Firehouse" on Saturday for a cookout. Seems the whole town is going. What a way to introduce yourself to the Fire Dept. Not quite the way I wanted to meet; but oh well.
Blessings to All,
Karen
