[QUOTE="backhoeboogie, post: 584106, member: 3162"] When we had all the fires running through here, they called me and told me my place was on fire but they saved my home. All of my hand dug fences with wood posts were gone. I still had pens on the left side of the house and driveway. The fire department was cutting fence and fighting fires all over the county. Livestock was everywhere. We began running the livestock up the driveway and putting it in the pens I had left. Most of my hay was lost in the barns that burned but I still had some. We salvaged water troughs and fed and watered some pretty scared animals. Most everyone that came and claimed their animals were grateful. One guy showed up about 5 days or so (I really don't remember exactly) and was very upset with me and acused me of taking his stock. The animals needed to be protected calmed and fed. Even tho that one guy made me madder than a firecracker, it was not the animals fault. I did the right thing. If he had called law enforcement, I had about 6 neighbors who would have testified that I cared for their animals etc. No big deal. Do the right thing and you won't regret it. [/QUOTE]
