Entertaining night. I swear I jut heard another truck just roll across the top of the mountain in Wilden sirens going. Maybe just an echo off the mountain from Glenmore road

Oh for freaks sake, a grass fire, how oh how could that have been started?
As WW3 develops, no one is going to be dissing the "preppers." What have you done?

No, I saw it too. Was coming down on that new stretch of Wilden that connects to Union. Stopped by Kane. Didn't realize there was a gras fire there

The fire was started by a cigarette butt. Two youth walked over to the fire, said the saw it from the crosswalk. Ok, over 200 yards away, fire at the time was the size of a softball.

Something fishy, kids quit tossing your butts into long grass.

It was interesting, today walked the road and every 4 inches is a cigarette butt that was likely thrown out a vehicle window.

I used to smoke, I always carried a bottle of water, used it for my ashtray and then capped it to stop spilling and odor in vehicle, it works.
