[QUOTE="sidney411, post: 174444, member: 430"] Yesterday we were down in the hayfield shredding and cutting brush from around the trees and all of a sudden we smelled smoke, more specifically grass burning and there was thick smoke everywhere. There was a very strong wind and it was coming from the side of our place that the wind was coming from too. We dropped everything and ran back up to the house and hubby jumped in the truck and went to find out where it was coming from as me and my BIL went to hook up the disk. It was about 1/2 mile away heading strait for us. The fire dept was already there fighting it, he said all he could see was a wall of flames. They said to get ready because with that strong of a wind they couldn't stop it. It burned several pastures probably about 100 or so acres but the wind died down all of a sudden and they did get it under control. It was within a few hundred yards of 2 houses. Some people up the road started it burning trash :mad: I sure hope they get a big fine. [/QUOTE]
