Last night the king and I were awakened at about midnight by the sound of sirens in our neighborhood. The king checked it out, and they were coming down our street. They went 4 houses past us. Our neighbor's shed (it's really more of a 2nd garage) appeared to be on fire. Several response teams came quickly and the fire was put out quickly. I was kind of wondering what the big deal was until I did the math. The shed is just a few feet from the 100+acres of pasture land that surround 2 sides of our sub-division. I now know why we got that snow on Monday! I'm grateful our neighbors are safe; I'm grateful for the quick response of the fire department; I'm grateful for the wet, sloppy, spring, snow storm.

That's pretty close to home. Glad no one was hurt. The paper said there were chickens who died in the fire that was caused by a faulty heat lamp. You are surrounded by chickens - better get some of your own.
