So naturally, I went outside to take pictures.

This was an unplanned, uncontrolled brush/grass fire. Really, really scary to see this outside my house.

Fire trucks showing up (there were about seven)

I was evacuated for 8 days due to a forest fire this past September. It got within a mile of my house. That was a pain taking care of 5 cats, 2 dogs and all my reptiles cause I was only able to grab a few supplies. All the snakes had to stay in pillow cases cause we couldn't bring their cages along. The turtles had to live in buckets and my beardie and blue tongued skink had to live in cat carriers.

man... grass fires are straight scary. Last spring break on the way down to Houston we pulled off to the side of a highway in Kansas and watched one go. So sureal. Glad you guys are all safe.

Well, it's out. It was put out some time between one and two a.m. It didn't come this way, thankfully.
